Yongnuo YN560-TX Pro Radio Controller For Sony

Yongnuo YN560-TX Pro Radio Controller For Sony | Control off-camera flash by group

More deliberate off-camera flash setups start with control you can reach from the camera: the Yongnuo YN560-TX Pro Radio Controller For Sony uses 2.4 GHz radio to trigger and manage compatible Yongnuo flash units. It fits Sony cameras with a Multi Interface Shoe (MIS), including DSLR and mirrorless models. From a portrait session to a small product setup, you can adjust supported flash settings from the controller rather than walking over to each light. Its group control handles up to five groups, so a key light and separate background or fill lights can have individual settings. For changing light quickly, TTL mode handles exposure automatically; switch to manual for direct power control, or use Multi mode for repeated stroboscopic flashes. The controller also supports high-speed sync, with sync speeds up to 1/8000 sec, which is useful when the flash setup calls for a faster shutter speed. First- and second-curtain sync are available too. The clear screen and dedicated buttons keep those controls accessible during a shoot. One detail to plan for: it runs on two AA batteries, and they aren’t included.

Why it is useful

• TTL flash control: Compatible lights can operate in TTL, with exposure compensation available to adjust the flash result. It’s a straightforward option when the distance between subject and flash changes during a session.
• Manual power settings: In M mode, flash output can be set directly, with compensation also available. That control is useful for a repeatable setup such as product photography, where consistent light matters from frame to frame.
• Multi stroboscopic mode: The controller supports repeated flashes, with the number and frequency of flashes adjustable. This gives you control over the pattern when capturing motion with multiple flash bursts.
• Independent group control: GR mode allows up to five groups, labelled A through E, to use their own settings. Groups can operate independently in TTL or manual mode, which is handy when balancing separate lights in a multi-light arrangement.
• High-speed and curtain sync: High-speed sync is supported up to 1/8000 sec, alongside first- and second-curtain synchronisation. Second-curtain sync places the flash at the end of the exposure, useful when the timing of a moving subject’s flash matters.
• Exposure tools: Exposure lock, flash exposure bracketing and modelling flash are supported, alongside exposure compensation. These functions give you additional ways to manage and assess the flash output from the controller.
• AF-assist emitter: An AF-assist light is built into the controller. It provides an additional focusing aid when working with the unit mounted on the camera.
