there is another way, cement the camera onto a hard rock stand, tape ur hand onto the camera... use ur finger at will, i doubt any movement will shake the camera now....

hi there, well, yongnuo YN460 II is a good flash. At least for me. Never had problem from it.

I used both Mark I and Mark II , based on my personal experience, YN460 II is just the same as YN 460 I
Just that the optical flash sensor for the former is behind the red plastic and the latter one is in the flash head.
Although the GN number increase, but I see not much difference in the flash power

There is no red AF assist lamp. The red plastic is just for cosmetic.

Another strong point is the wireless function smile.gif
Works very well with sony alpha wireless flash

That's all I can say smile.gif
I got the YN 460 I, do pm me if u want

icic..thanks for the info..i am a noob to flash.not so sure what certain terms mean.. sweat.gif
but i understand your explanation.ty very much..i have pmed you..

jerrylyh: blur may b cost by hand shake. when shooting the moon, must step down. my setting was iso 100, aperture f/5.6, shutter speed 1/125. this way u don capture so much light. i found it quite hard to make my shot steady with telephoto so i decided to increase the shutter speed to avoid hand shake blur. i used iso100 to reduce the noise till the maximum. to get sufficient light wit such shutter speed, i have to open aperture wider, in my case, widest f/5.6
*
icic..i used iso 400 for all my shots..some of my clearest photos are using f10 and shutter 1/320..but i am only using 55-200mm la..not as far as 300mm can go.. sweat.gif thanks for the pointer though.. notworthy.gif will try and see if can get a better shot next time.. tongue.gif

IMO, there's no such thing as easy/non easy, pro/non pro setup... as long the setup works to get what you want, then its a good setup.

hi guys..does anyone have a suggestion on 3rd party flash guns that supports TTL and auto function?I was planning to go for Yong Nuo YN460 but then I realised that it is a fully manual flash.sony flashes are kinda out of my budget.. sweat.gif
