Hi all,

Basically looking into getting stuck into off camera wireless flash, as i do a lot of bmx photography and it seems to be what everyone is doing i thought id give it a go!

I have a yongnuo yn-560 ii http://www.amazon.co.uk/YONGNUO-YN-5...gnuo+yn-560+ii, and was wondering if using this wireless trigger set up, a yongnuo RF-602 http://www.amazon.co.uk/BuyInSummer-...+flash+trigger will work with a Canon 550D

It may seem a basic question but im new to any kind of 'flash' photography, so thought its best to ask before i start spending my money.

I also have an old Sigma Flashgun EF 530 ST DG, which i got given to me but it is not compatible with my 550d as the internals are to old, i was wondering if i bought the wireless kit with 2 transmitters if it would be able to fire my sigma flash?

Also, if i bought another YN-560 ii, would it be possible to trigger both flashes with that wireless flash trigger posted above?



Thanks, Elliott
 
The links you've put up don't seem to be working.

But I believe the RF-602's will fire the flashguns with no problems.....I think with the RF-602 there is a receiver and a transmitter, so you have to make sure the receiver is on the flash.
 
Don't forget that the 602 takes a cr2 battery and 603 takes the aaa batteries.

Not sure on compatibility but they should work with the sigma flash as one transmitter goes on the camera flash hot shoe and the other on the flash.

Have a look at the various videos on YouTube.
 
Just seen this thread is also in the Lighting & Studio section of the forum too
