Yongnuo YN560-III Speedlite
The Yongnuo YN560-III is a powerful, long-range manual flash designed for photographers who need reliable off-camera lighting. The standout feature of this third-generation Speedlite is its built-in 2.4 GHz wireless radio receiver, allowing it to be triggered from up to 300′ away without the need for an external receiver. Whether you are building a budget-friendly studio or shooting dynamic event photography, the YN560-III offers the manual precision and power required for professional results.

Wireless Integration & Power
Integrated Radio Receiver: Compatible with YN560-TX, RF-603, and RF-602 wireless transmitters. It operates on 16 selectable channels, ensuring a stable connection even in crowded environments.

High Output: Boasting a guide number of 190′ (ISO 100, 105mm), this flash provides ample light for large groups or overpowering the sun.

Flexible Zooming: The flash head features a zoom range of 24-105mm, which can be expanded to a wide 18mm using the built-in pull-out diffuser.

Granular Power Control: Adjust your light from 1/1 full power down to 1/128 in precise 1/3 and 1/2 EV increments across 29 individual settings.

Versatile Lighting & Triggering
Full Bounce and Swivel: Achieve soft, natural light with a flash head that tilts from -7 to 90° and rotates 270°. A built-in bounce card is also included to add a catchlight to your subject’s eyes.

Optical Slave Modes: For simple off-camera setups, the flash can be triggered optically (S1 for instant sync or S2 to skip a TTL pre-flash) with a range of up to 82′ indoors.

Stroboscopic Multi-Mode: Create unique motion-blur effects by firing the flash multiple times during a single long exposure.

Connectivity Options: Includes a PC sync port for wired triggering and a high-voltage socket for connecting external power packs (SF-18C or SF-17C) to decrease recycle times.

Professional Handling & Build
User Interface: A large, backlit LCD screen makes it easy to view and adjust settings in dark environments. The unit also features audible “flash ready” beeps to confirm your light is recycled and ready to fire.

Reliable Hardware: Built with a durable metal hot shoe for secure on-camera mounting.

Efficient Power Management: Runs on 4 AA batteries, delivering between 100 and 1,500 flashes per set with a standard recycle time of approximately 3 seconds.

Automatic Memory: The YN560-III automatically saves your current settings, so you can pick up exactly where you left off after a power cycle.
