Yongnuo YN685 for Canon

Yongnuo YN685 | Flash for Canon

With a built-in YN622C radio transceiver, the YN685C Wireless TTL Speedlite from Yongnuo offers complete radio slave functionality with both the YN-622C and RF-603/YN-560 radio systems for maximum compatibility with your existing gear. The flash is also compatible with Canon’s E-TTL / E-TTL II flash system when mounted to the camera and has a powerful guide number of 60m at ISO 100 and 200mm. Benefiting this power is a wide zoom range which will cover 20-200mm in full frame and it has a diffuser for wide angle lenses. Full bounce and tilt is available as well with tilt upwards up to 90° and rotation left and right of 180°.

Operation is simplified with a clear LCD screen on the back, a dial, and a selection of buttons. The head also offers a pull-out bounce panel for reflecting some light forward when using the tilt functionality. Full sync options are available as well with high-speed, 1st & 2nd curtain sync. It conveniently on 4 AA batteries and has a recycle time of 3 seconds at full power and has an HV power port for battery packs. Additionally, it has a PC sync port.

Yongnuo YN685C is a fully featured on-camera ETTL flash, as well as providing Radio Slave Modes for both the Yongnuo YN622C (II) and RF-603 / YN560 radio systems.
This means current compatible transmitter units include the YN-622C, YN622C II, YN-622C-TX, YN560IV Flash, YN560-TX, RF-605, RF-603 II and original RF-603.
The YN685 provide an HV Battery Port for attaching external high voltage battery packs, as well as a PC Sync Port.
The YN685 provide a long awaited Radio Slave Flash for the very popular YN-622C TTL trigger system. And another alternative to Yongnuo’s RT system for Canon.
One functional advantage of the YN685 / YN622C is the ability to control remote flash zoom length, which the RT system does not provide.
Another advantage is cross compatibility with the inexpensive YN560-TX / YN-560 III / YN560 IV Remote Manual flash system

This flash is an ideal upgrade if you need additional light and you are already using or investing in YN622C system. You will save because you do not need additional YN622C II trigger and also you do not need additional AA batteries. With 60 guide number this is one of the most powerful flashes from Yongnuo and also on the market at the moment. A great alternative to Yongnuo YN600EX-RT based on Canon RT system
