One the price comes out, it will scare people and they'll stick with their yongnuo 600 ex ii's.

- third, I find the 4xAA batteries a little flimsy to change. I would much prefer the new flash to use only one AAA battery, and a reversed-polarity compensation, so I can just throw that battery in whichever way I prefer. I would even prefer it to use CR2032 cells, but I admit they are too expensive.
- Then, the flash needs to be much much smaller in the bag (but not too small, or I might lose it) and lighter on the camera. Also, this would make it much cheaper as less material is needed.
Hopefully finally throws out AA batteries and goes to Li Ion rechargeable. Maybe even LP-E6NH?
Sometimes referred to as the firefly flash.I really like my 600EX-RT flashes, but there are a couple of things that would make me dump all of them immediately:
- first, my new RF 800 f/11 lens is a really dim lens that could need a flash to accompany it with a little more power. Especially, at more than 500 m the 600EX tends to become a little too dim. So, more power would be appreciated to illuminate the scene to help this lens.
- With animals, but also street photography or even portraits, a purely IR flash would help in the field, not to shy subjects away. White balance might be a bit tricky, but I'm sure is doable, come on, Canon.

- I also would like advanced-advanced AI features, eg the flash should refuse to fire if the scene isn't worth it.
Pretty much any of those features would make me swap my flashes in a flash, other than that, I guess I would stick with my 600EX-RTs.
Possibly. It may need a different design of battery. But we don't know exactly what the LP-E6NH is capable of, it's possible part of the design is to allow it to work differently with a flash.Wouldn't an LP-E6NH take longer to recycle the flash?
