Yongnuo YN622C Kit (Wireless TTL Flash Trigger Set) Canon

Yongnuo YN622C Kit (Wireless TTL Flash Trigger Set) Canon: Fire Canon flash off camera

A portrait setup often needs the flash away from the camera, so the light can come from a more useful direction. The Yongnuo YN622C Kit (Wireless TTL Flash Trigger Set) Canon uses a 2.4GHz wireless link, with a stated maximum range of 100m, to trigger Canon flash equipment off camera. The set pairs a YN-622C transceiver with a YN-622C-TX controller, which sits in the camera’s hotshoe and gives you access to TTL, manual and multi-flash modes from the controller’s LCD screen. For portraits, that means you can position a flash to shape the light while retaining TTL control. For product photographs, three groups let you organise separate flash units around the subject, while the choice of TTL or manual operation suits different levels of control. High-speed sync is supported, with a maximum sync speed of 1/8000s, so the kit also fits setups that call for faster shutter speeds. First- and second-curtain sync are available too. This is a dedicated Canon trigger set, rather than a general-purpose wireless remote, and the supplied cables add a wired connection option where needed.

Light and control

• Controller and transceiver: The kit combines a YN-622C-TX controller with a YN-622C transceiver. The controller mounts on the camera’s hotshoe, while the transceiver is the other part of the wireless link.
• TTL, manual and multi-flash modes: Choose between TTL operation, manual flash control and multi-flash mode. That range of modes accommodates different approaches to lighting portraits and product work.
• Three groups, seven channels: The system supports three flash groups and seven channels. Groups provide a way to organise multiple flash units, while channel selection gives you options for setting up the wireless link.
• LCD controller: The YN-622C-TX has an LCD screen for its controls. You can view and adjust the trigger settings at the camera, rather than relying on a screenless transmitter.
• High-speed and curtain sync: High-speed sync is supported up to a maximum sync speed of 1/8000s. First- and second-curtain synchronisation are also available for different flash timing effects.
• USB port and power: The controller includes a USB port. The controller and transceiver each take two AA batteries, four in total for the kit.
• Compact two-part set: The controller weighs 82g and the transceiver 78g, for a combined weight of 160g. That keeps the trigger components light when packed with your flash equipment.
