Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
well, its been a while since ive been here doing more than just lurking, and even longer still since ive done one of these donations, but here I am.
There might be a few people left here that remember these, but for those that are unfamiliar with me doing this, i will give you all the rundown...
I am DONATING some flash equipment. you MUST already have a camera capable of making use of them.
As some of you might know, I am a big fan of off camera flash. (and on camera bouncing flash) I think this is a skill that every photographer should know how, and when, to use.
To that effect, i am giving away some gear that I have not used in a while. everything has been tested and works properly.

what we have here are TWO Yongnuo YN568EX flashes, one YN622N controllers, and two yn622 transceivers.
be advised, you dont actually NEED the controller on your camera. the 622N transceivers work both as a transmitter AND receiver, (one on your camera flash mount and one on a flash) but using the controller will let you use one transceiver on each flash with the controller running them both. the controller does a lot of other stuff too, like controlling the flash output instead of having to go to the flashes and make manual changes and even controlling multiple flash groups. its pretty cool.

to be eligible for this donation, you MUST post in THIS thread with your interest, your current camera gear, and how you think flashes will change your current photography for the better.
I am not going to babysit people on this, or message for the appropriate information. Posts that do not follow the proper format will simply not be considered.
this donation is for continental United States ONLY. The wife and I will cover shipping so this will arrive to your door with $0 out of pocket to you.
These will work with any camera system that has a hot shoe flash mount. we have used them on both Nikon and Fuji camera systems with no issues.
This donation will run a few weeks if there is enough interest.

The wife and I reserve the right to alter the conditions or cancel this donation at any time for any dumb old reason.

I love off camera flash. But considering I am flash rich (over 24 working Nikon speedlights, mostly used for real estate) and several off brands. I will stay out of the generous offer chance for someone who really needs them. I have 12 cowboy radio triggers, for the older sb24's and 25's, and use the optical triggers on the newer flashes. I routinely fire off all my flashes about twice a year. Keep the capacitors in good shape. Don't let flashes sit too long with no use. Good luck to those that need them. BTW I have had just 1 flash fail. SB600 flash tube. Repairable, but my only one to fail in over 30 years. Did have a foot break, but replaced it easily myself.

thats definitely more flashes than I have. i did have a number of sb24's back in the day, but i dont have any of them now. they were tanks though.

The most I used at 1 time was 16 and was actually on a plane, just for fun. I used them to backlight the opposite side. They were hidden by the fuselage itself. It worked ok, would have been much better if I could have flooded the ramp with water. Not sure where the picture is. It's probably on my big drive that I dump everything too eventually.

I have an Canon EOS-1 that they would work really nice with and if you wish I can send you a pre-paid shipping label.
