Hi Guys!
As many of you wrote to get used to light, I was working on this skill intensively. Therefore I bought an lighting-umbrella and an softbox for flashes. I use flash triggers from Yongnou RF-602/C and RF-602TX to trigger my two of my flashes. This works, but it is inconvenient to change all settings manually. In my softbox, the flash has to be installed reversely, so I have to take off the flash from the tripod to change the power.
I need new triggers with an "wireless" possibility to change the power without taking off the flashes.
One way would be to use my ring flash from canon to take control of my flashes (I own an Canon 550 and an Nissid Di866II). But the ring flash works only on an 58mm lens, so on all other leneses, it would has to hang down from the camera. So, I want an better solution.
I looked this up in the internet and found the Yongnuo YN-622C II and the YN-622C-TX controller. There it should be possible to change the power of the flash from the remote-controlled. Furthermore I want to extend my system with two flashes for highlighting the background, so a third group will be used (1 softbox, 2 umbrella or second softbox, 3 background).
Is this an good choice? Do the version II triggers work with the controller?
Which flashes should I buy for background lighting?
Thanks you a lot
Daniela
