Nice! too bad I already have a 35mm - wish they would do either something a lot wider, or longer on the cheap.

I have a Yongnuo flash almost 5yrs now and it's still going strong, that was cheap as chips too.

Yeah I have a few grips and and flashes and triggers off them .... All very good. Give it time I think if these two lenses are popular they might venture into others

Have you tried it ? .... Is it no good ?

I haven't but a mate of mine managed to snag one of eBay though, it isn't as good as the Nikon 35mm f/2 which is also poor. I guess for the money though you can't complain too much. There flash's and other bits where pretty awful at the first few attempts as well, so a few years down the line from now who knows.

Could be a case of trial and error on their products alright. I had the old YN-460 and it failed after a while, but then got a 560 and like I say, 5yrs later, still perfect, works a treat as a back up flash or a 2nd so long as you use manual flash modes.

Hmm.... So the key is to wait
