#Supersync youngno review manual
Wireless Rear Curtain sync, in Manual Mode, works when using the YN-E3-RT as does the Legacy feature. A Mode is set it defaults to Manual Mode at 1/128 power when the flash fires.
When using the 580EXII (I am assuming the same for all the EX models mentioned in the Flash Havoc write up, linked in the first post but, I only have the 580EX II, 320EX and 270EX II for testing) you can use all Wireless RT Modes and they work just as they do with the 600EX except for the Mode where only the ETTL and Manual Modes work.even though the 580EX II has "External" metering capability it will not work in the Mode.when Ext. You use the +/- buttons to change the settings. Every time you press the set button, you toggle through the different settings: channel, group, 1st digit ID, 2nd digit ID, 3rd digit ID and 4th digit ID. Just out of curiosity, with the 580EXII, are you only getting all the functionality you can get with the Canon optical system? (eTTL, HSS, groups A-C, M manual control, etc.) Or are you getting added functionality of the RT units, in terms of being able to set the remote flash to Group D/E, use Gr mode, ID codes, etc.? Or are you getting YN-added capability of the 622 triggers (e.g., 2nd curtain sync)? Most the descriptions haven't been particularly detailed in what you do and don't get with non-RT flashes, or with non-menu-commandable flashes like a 580EX/430EX or a pre-2012 Canon body.įirst there is 3 buttons (set, + and -). You have HSS and it works but having the ability to adjust the triggering timing of a flash connected to the sync port is not a feature of the YN-E3-RT, YN600EX-RT, ST-E3-RT, or the 600EX-RT which are the only transmitters compatible with this receiver. The Yongnuo Supersync and my understanding of it, is a YN622-tx feature and these are not compatible with the YN622's. For strobes such as the Cheetah lights and PCB's, that have flash power control from their own transmitter, it would be a handy feature to at least be able to turn a group ON or OFF. I did not see in the manual but, I am interested to see if when using the mode if turning OFF a group will also disable the triggering of the sync port for a receiver set to that group. The manual states that flashes in both the hotshoe and connected to the sync port will be triggered (could open up some creative possibilities for someone).

I will check the PC port for triggering studio strobes hopefully in the next few days. Have you tried using the PC socket for firing studio lights and how well they integrate with canon rt ttl system? Do they offer YNs SuperSync? If you want the redundancy of a radio wireless system to use with your older EX Speedlites then pick up a Yongnuo YN-E3-RT transmitter and a YNE3-RX receiver for each of your EX Speedlites and other non Canon flashes. A very simple device that addresses one of the first questions that a lot of people had about the Canon Wireless RT system and backwards compatibility with older EX Speedlites and the ability to use studio and non Canon shoe flashes with the Wireless RT system. I guess I was wrong and a good thing I did not bet that money but seriously, what took so long? Why didn't Canon step up and support their products and their faithful customers? Canons answer was to include the ability of the 600EX-RT to operate as a Master or Slave in the Wireless Optical system.What? That is backwards, backwards compatibility! Who wants to use a $600 RT compatible Speedlite in the Wireless Optical world? My hat is off to Yongnuo for developing this simple and ingenious little device!Įlvis did a great write up on these over at Flash Havoc last month ( …ne3-rx-receiver-released/ ) so I do not have much to add to that other than to say that I picked up a couple and have tested them with a 580EX II, 320EX and Mitros+ flashes and they have worked just fine.
It has been nearly 3 years since Canon introduced the 600EX-RT and the Wireless RT system and I would have thought by now, in fact I would have put money on it, that someone could have developed a receiver to work with the Wireless RT system sooner than this.
First off I am not bashing Yongnuo, in fact I applaud Yongnuo and all they have done in bringing the Canon Wireless RT system to the masses, at a reasonable price and for correcting many of the omissions that Canon over-looked in developing this innovative flash system.
