Yongnuo 560-tx and 560iii/iv

How to Control the YN 560iii/iv with the 560-tx

[@sherieroberson5481]

Thank you so much! I spent the better part of today trying to get these synced...five videos and one great big headache later...I found your's and got them working within 5 minutes!!! So appreciative!

[@jameshardy2339]

Thank you for the great instructions....i went through like five videos and got lost. Glad i found yours.

[@adriancl7]

thank you very much brother you saved my life

[@MADMICKMIDDLESBROUGH]

Many Thanks for this clear and simple video, its helped me tremendously.... Thank You

[@TheBoneheadpro]

I was searching around online to find a reason why my 560III stopped communicating with my 560TX suddenly after 2 years and a dozen weddings. I found another video that helped because your video does not mention it and wanted to let you know. On the TX.....very important that the HZ/FN button (hold down and use l-r) is at the same freq as the flashes. Somehow mine got changed between my last shoot (from 3 to 2) in Nov and a New Years Day shoot in my camera bag. Strange but it happened. Basically my tx frequency didn't match the flashes and communication stopped between the 2.

[@michelleflores3784]

Thank you!!!

[@JohnMarra]

Thank you, probably one of the best tutorials for getting the YN560-TX synced up with the YN560 IV and explaining the different functions such as channels, groups, mode, and zoom.

[@eletor]

Many thanks kind sir!

[@ZobaiR_Hasan]

That was very helpful Thank you.❤

[@tomirwin4260]

Thanks for the excellent tutorial. UPS just delivered three 560 IV's and one 560-TX and I appreciate your covering their use. Your excellent presentation is the best I've seen on this product. Looking forward to what you have to share on controlling multiple 560's.

[@tpaynephoto]

Tom Irwin I may put together a video on that later on, if you have any specifics, let me know.. also, when you need more of them. www.yongnuousa.net is my website!!

[@Kohkrating]

Thanks for sharing. I could understand how it work better now.

[@blckbeauty301]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I was so lost!! Video help so much!!

[@tombiondi9854]

Hi... you mentioned that you would be putting a video up using the Yongnuo 560-IV on camera and controlling other 560-IV flashes off camera.... Would love to see it!

[@tpaynephoto]

I'm way behind on videos, I apologize. I'm hoping to have some time soon to get caught up.

[@davebhianco4748]

Thanks so much! God bless you always

[@mikeh2772]

Excellent video, thank you very much.

[@Kirin0]

You are a lifesaver... thank you! Was fussing with this for an hour until I found your video and could clearly see the proper settings in the displays and with you clear explanations finally got it back up

[@mud_gum9367]

Finally! A tutorial that is both clear and thorough. Man, I weeded through some crappy vids before finally finding yours. Thanks so much for creating great online content.

[@LarryFieldPhotography]

Thanks for this demo. Can you also adjust the flash power on the flash unit when using the YN560-TX controller, or can you only set the power at the camera on the controller? Sometimes I'm triggering remotely using a CamRanger while I'm standing by the flash unit, away from the camera which is on a tripod and I'd like to be able to adjust the power at the flash.

[@brumblebuffin11]

You are driving me crazy: "Press and hold this button" - - and your fingers cover up the button you are referring to. NAME the buttons, please.

[@JinForTheWin79]

How would I set it so that I can use the 560 iv for on camera bounce and then controll a 560 iii using the 560 iv and to be able to controll the power levels independently for each flash.?

[@junebugphotoandvideo]

Thank you for creating this video. I was having a heck of a time figuring out the Channels. You Rock!

[@tpaynephoto]

Jon Lundstrom Glad to help.. when you are ready for more.. I have them available at www.yongnuousa.net

[@melodylytle3772]

Will YN560 TX ii on a Canon body control remote speed lite YN560 IV on Canon?

[@vicklic]

Excuse me, Can I sync a YN565EX flash with the YN560-TX II controller?

[@camiloradagast3381]

hi in my canon 80 D Does not synchronize well, fires one with flash and the next shot does not. The control and flash sync well, but when I get it with my camera, it does not fire the flash. sorry for my bad english

[@okikiconsulting]

Thank you this is the best tutorial i found! The others were way too fast!

[@marypar4]

Did you miss the link up..pressing zoom and function button on tx

[@gtboy15]

Thank you big help!!!

[@msyoriko3092]

Are those tools compatible with canon rebel t6i (750D) ?

[@DiyEcoProjects]

Question please: If i take the YN560-TX off the camera and press "test" flash button ... will it trigger the other flashes This would be useful as i could take the YN560-TX off the camera and walk up to subject with my sekonic light meter, trigger the flash and not need a sync cord plugged in This would be a good work around for Nikon D500

[@carlosmo6705]

Very useful information! Thank you for sharing!

[@delowarhossan9455]

Hi i am a pentax user. Should i buy those speed light and trigger for pentax. K 3ii? Do you know the range?

Gracias, siempre olvido como funciona.

[@montycraig5659]

I'm still having no luck syncing my Fuji X Pro1 with my YN660s I bought from you. I have tried cleaning the hotshoe contacts, wiggling the 560tx in the camera hotshoe, and yes, even scratching the contacts to remove any paint. The comments show that the 560tx is universal, so it should work on Fuji cameras, so I must have something set wrong with the flash units, or perhaps the camera. is there still a possibility of making a new video with the 560tx and the YN660 flashes? I am not trying to be a pain, but I have had these units now for going on 3 months with no answers, I either need help, or perhaps, a refund. Thanks.

[@soundofenigma]

hello! I'm fairly new to speedlights and I just want to know if I get the 560 TX I won't be needing to purchase a PocketWizard Plus X to fire off my 560 IVs off-camera? Oh, and this video is super informative. thank you!

[@tpaynephoto]

correct. no need for pw's

[@toonami4]

Hi Thanks for this great review. I have the same setup but i am having a small problem and I hope you could kindly help me. when I use the multi mode just on the YN560 IV it works, ie. 5x10 5 flashes in 10 hertz, but when I do the same from the YN560 TX in multi mode only one flash happens. I am using Channel 1 and Group A for both Manual and Multi. Can you help me to fix this problem please ?

[@portraithacker1877]

What if I have a 560-tx on my canon 5dmiii, triggering to a 560iv, would it be possible to also trigger to a canon 580ex flash? If so, which transmitter would I need to put on the 580ex?

[@noevargas-multimedia5073]

And version 3? i wanted to see how this controler works with the YN560 iii :(

[@tpaynephoto]

It's exactly the same

[@bobing87]

ello.. i have 2 yn560 vi and one of those is 1 year old. i just bought th 560 tx. i been trying to Connect both 560 vi to TX but the old one doesn't Connect :( any sugestión? thanks

[@SandyDuryea]

My second and I have our own flashes. We are sometimes setting each other's flashes off even when on different channels, and also having guests cameras setting them off as well. Changing the channel helped with the guests, but it's touch and go as to whether or not we are still setting off each others. Any tips?

[@ArtsyMike]

Great video, quick question. Will i need to have receivers attached to each YN 560iii/iv in order to use them with YN 560-TX or can everything be done wirelessly through the grouping?

[@tpaynephoto]

+Michael norman no trigger is needed. They are built into the 560iii/iv and communicate easily with the 560-tx

[@JacquelineRena1]

Great teacher, very easy to follow - Please keep helping us out here in Professional Photography land helped me from having to read the instructions all night to figure it out. I will be using this during a wedding this weekend, you have made the process that easy I'm not afraid.....THANK YOU THANK YOU AND THANK YOU again. I'll let you know how things worked out.

[@chasingwaves11]

Hey need help !! .. I have the same setup as you have here .. my flash works only when I’m using the eyepiece but when I switch to live view my flash won’t work 🤔🤔 I don’t get it any idea why ??

[@ThomasGB4]

Disable silent LV shooting in the menu. There is "silent lv" 1 and 2. Just disable it and it will work

[@BrianPex]

Writing an article on this subject. I was listening in background. Did you show the activate process for the YN 560 iii? Out of the box the flashes aren't set up with the group function.

[@Woodworker1947]

Brilliant and so straight forward as explained in an understandable way! - Thank You

[@nighthawk20011]

Had mine set up last night for an event. I was able to change the settings using the trigger, but when I’d take a shot no flash.

[@oscarcrendeful]

Has the controller the plastic foot like the flash? Has it got in the package when you buy it?

[@kevinutarid]

This is by far the best tutorial video I've ever seen thank you

[@rdxmiraj9561]

Can I use it with canon 4000d

[@lalogogue]

Works on Sony a7?

[@retepnosdivad]

Thank you for this video, the others I have watched were so rushed & hard to take in. Yours was just right for me.Thanks again.

[@luisalbertmorales1149]

Thank you !!!!!

[@chiarameierhofermuscara2427]

THANK YOU!!!!!

[@islamillar]

Gracias, no sabía cómo configurar el disparador y el Flash y a pesar que tu vídeo está en un idioma distinto al mío se me a hecho muy fácil poder configurarlo. Gracias

[@deathspawn54]

when you buy the YN560-tx does it work on both canon and nikon? or is there one for each company?

[@tpaynephoto]

deathspawn54 there is one for each, but either will work.

[@lighthouseproduction4807]

Thanks

[@millycan1]

Thnx

[@heysalsaguy]

Thanks for the video. I got an issue with mine, apparently. The blue light on the flashes stays on ALL THE TIME. I thought it was only supposed to come on when making an adjustment, but for my flash guns, the blue light stays on all the time! It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the flash, and the batteries don't seem to wear down any quicker. But I just want to make sure this doesn't mean there is any problem with my 560 TX transmitter. Aside from this strange behavior, I love this system. Easy - Effective - Affordable

[@tpaynephoto]

heysalsaguy I am glad they are working for you! I will have to look into it a bit to see if there have been other instances.. if you end up needing more.. www.yongnuousa.net

[@loi0323]

Is this compatible with Olympus OMD EM1?

[@keonprediphotography8102]

Does the 560tx have a a bean for low light capturing to allow Canon cameras to focus?

[@tpaynephoto]

no it doesn't. that's only available on yongnuo ttl capable speedlights

[@arawen72]

Thank you so much for your tutorial. I have wreck my brain trying to figure out the instruction that came with both of the device and I couldn't make heads or tail about it. I've listen to other youTube tutorila and still they didn't make sense. I've called B&H, Glazer's in Seattle and asked several professional photogrpahers and not one of them knows as well as you did. Your tutorial helped me a great deal, thank you.

[@tpaynephoto]

in the future, but from me at www.yongnuoUSA.net

[@garymurray3615]

Hi great tutorial, I have a question. Will the 560tx work with older YN speedlights attached to the 603ii transmitter?

[@tpaynephoto]

+Gary Murray it will trigger the 603 but it will not control them.

[@videoman4424]

Great job in explaining. and no music.

[@durdaneta26]

any word on an update / replacement for the 560 tx anytime soon? specifically something smaller

[@tpaynephoto]

+drD23 no. it is here for quite some time.

[@dawnmeier990]

I can't thank you enough for creating and sharing this video! I could not figure out how to get these working together and was super frustrated! I really appreciate your clear instructions. Wishing you all the best

[@meatintaco2002]

Thank you!

[@ZuesLytning]

I have a canon 70d and recently purchased a YN560-TX and two YN560-IV. I have the transmitter synced to the flashes but when I put the transmitter on camera it doesn't trigger. I've tried resetting, cleaning hot shoes and everything I can think of but it still won't work. Please Help?

[@tpaynephoto]

Make sure they're both on 603 mode. that's been an issue I've seen quite often

[@ZuesLytning]

+tpaynephoto thanks! I figured it out a few months back.

[@tpaynephoto]

+Zueslytning sorry for the delay.

[@ZuesLytning]

+tpaynephoto no worries

[@sergeyvasilishin5761]

Thank you sir it was very helpful.

[@EricJFord]

Thank you. You made easy to understand.

[@xjugulatorx]

Thank you. Very very helpfull

[@paulandmaureenharvey2815]

That was really, really helpful, thank you!

[@niller2006]

Will the YN560-TX Wireless Controller fit a Canon 750D/ Canon EOS Rebel T6i ? To fire 2 YN 560IV ??

[@tpaynephoto]

niller2006 yes it will. order on www.yongnuoUSA.net

[@niller2006]

Thank you for your help :-)

[@alandesmond2840]

Brilliant, thank you

[@tpaynephoto]

Alan Desmond Thank you!

[@sridharkondakalla]

Hi Tim, wil this (YN560-TX) works with 600ex-rt flash light ?

[@tpaynephoto]

no. You'll need the yn-e3-rt controller.

[@sridharkondakalla]

thankyou...

[@jesusfreakman]

If I have a 560ii and a rf603ii trigger will this work with it?

[@tpaynephoto]

+Bradley Curtwright The 560-tx will fire the 603/560II but it will not control the power settings..

[@HURPSYYEMRAY1]

Tnx

[@saeedahmad3748]

What Multi mood do?

[@tpaynephoto]

+Saeed Ahmad Multi mode allows for several pulses of flash during a long exposure...

[@saeedahmad3748]

Thanks, I got it, I am waiting from my Yongnuo 560TX and 4 Flash, may need more help with that.

[@PhocusedbyDarryl]

Thanks for the video! Am I correct in stating that the 560-III has to be changed manually vs being adjusted by the TX?

[@DonSmithphoto]

+Darryl Moore no the 560 V3 can be adjusted by the 560TX

[@tpaynephoto]

+Darryl Moore you just have to activate group mode on the 560III and it can be adjusted by the 560-tx remotely.

[@invictushakil]

+tpaynephoto Is there a way to activate group mode on Version 3 without a 560 tx? I am asking because I have a yongnuo 600 ex rt and want to control the power of my 560 v3

[@tpaynephoto]

+Shakil Mahbub Hussain you can not control the 560ii with a 600ex-rt. you can only control it with the 560-tx controller or a 560iv speedlight.

[@tpaynephoto]

+tpaynephoto sorry, 560iii, not 560ii... typo

[@linyenjung2481]

will work with sony a58

[@tpaynephoto]

yes. the 560-tx is universal

[@moofa24]

Does it work with Nikon D7100

[@tpaynephoto]

Yes. In fact I have a package set up for nikon users on my website. Www.yongnuousa.net

[@moofa24]

Thank you dear

[@saki2rules]

can yongnuo 560 IV be controlled with yn e3 rt ???

[@tpaynephoto]

Saikat Das No. only with another 560iv or the 560-tx
