Yongnuo 565 vs 568 Wireless TTL compatibilty with 60d

[Tiller]

Hey guys, I've been looking for a while now, and I can't find a definitive answer to my question. I've got the 60d and want to use it both on and off camera wirelessly. I'm going to be buying from thephotogadget.com and thats where I run into trouble.

The 565 says it's TTL Master/Commander compatible including the 60d. Here's the link to that page: http://thephotogadget.com/content/yongnuo-yn-565ex-wireless-ttl-flash-canon

But...

The 568 says it's NOT wirelessly TTL compatible with the 60d And the link to that page: http://thephotogadget.com/content/yongnuo-yn568ex-high-speed-sync-flash-canon-free-diffuser-cap

Am I on the right track here? I'm a little confused why the newer version wouldn't support what the older version did. I'd like HSS but its not a huge deal. The biggest deal is I need it to work with the infrared on the 60d without having to buy wires/cables/triggers/etc...

Thanks, Tyler

Hey, yes it's wirelessly compatible. I've been using the 568 with my 60d for around 2 months with no problems.
