If you mean the RF-602s, no. Those triggers are manual only. Despite the fact that they have the TTL pins, those are only used to relay the "wake-up-from-sleep" signal. They don't have any e-TTL capability.

The YN-565EX, however, can be used with an on-camera pop-up master, ST-E2, 550EX, or 580EX as master in the Canon wireless mode for eTTL off-camera triggering. Nobody I know's tested it yet with TTL triggers like the PocketWizard TTL units, RadioPoppers or Pixel Knights, but my guess would be it's iffy: reverse engineering dangers. I know someone on this board had issues trying to get a Nissin Di-866 to work with the TTL PocketWizard Units, so I wouldn't assume 100% compatibility for eTTL-II with any of the 3rd party options.

I think you should try the YN-565EX.

d) YN 460 Mark I USD 41

Currently I own one cheap iTTL speedlight Yongnuo YN465.



Which speedlights do have the quoted characteristics? I don't understand what this means "a strobe that can be triggered externally via your camera's PC connection". I have an IR remote control for my D5100. Same thing?


Thanks.
