I've just received one of these, but it arrived without the instruction manual. Does anyone else have one? If so would you scan the bit about the C.Fn button and either post it here or email me a copy please?
Thank you.

Have you tried contacting the company?

For those who don't know, it's a ringlight:

I would be curious how well it works, when you figure it out.
The Canon MR-14 EX II is about $500, double the price of the Viltrox.

I have the non-dedicated JY670. That works fine. The JY670C, has TTL for Canon. I assume it will work equally as well. It just has this extra C.Fn function.

I'm surprised at those prices. Here the Canon is about £500, ($763).

Whereas the Vlitrox can be had for about £60 ($91).

I've contacted the seller, but they want me to re-pack and return the item. I've sent an email to Viltrox, and am waiting for a reply. I've also tried to find an on-line manual.

I searched but could not find anything. The only thing I saw was that it is completely manual, no auto mode. Gary

Thank you.


If this is a clone of the Canon MR-14EX II, why not go to Canon's web site and pull up their manual and see if it operates the same?

I hadn't thought of that. It's not a clone, but the functions may be the same. Thank you.

If anyone's still interested, I've posted a couple in the True Macro section.
