    Thanks for the answer, it is quite obvious.
    But the question was concrete. And do not wait for favors from the Chinese. I thought that not so much the developers were concerned about this problem as its users. Perhaps some of them will allow it.

      Perhaps a factory defect. Bad luck. For China. But in terms of price, features and with a good case, this puff is beyond competition. One sturdy butt door. compartment is worth it. I doubt the Meike 910 is better in terms of quality and defect rate.

      It's not just about software. In Canon, there is a different arrangement of contacts on the shoe, different from the Nikon system (after all, another religion). Sewing such a thing is like sewing a cheap Chinese MP3 player. There the principle is: it works - don't touch it. Revisions of hardware and software versions - a cloud. If you do not sew it with your own, an inverted display will appear, or you will ruffle it instead of a font.

    Good afternoon!
    I had a question like this:
    When viewing EXIF ​​images taken with this flash, the Nikon ViewNX2 proprietary software detects the flash as Nikon SB-800 or SB-900 (depending on the software version). When a proprietary flash such as Nikon SB-400 is attached to the unit and turned on, in accordance with the unit's User Guide (section “e: Bracketing / Flash”), the “Built-in Flash Control” menu should change to “Optional Flash”, which allows you to select one of the modes on it - TTL or Manual.
    Should this happen when the Nikon YN565EX TTL flash is installed on the unit?

      As I recently found out, the replacement of “Built-in flash control” with “Additional flash” in Nikon DSLRs occurs ONLY when Nikon branded flash units SB-300, -400 and -500 are installed in the shoe, which do NOT have control modes.

        Which is basically logical. Because the instructions for advanced (and, apparently, old) flashes (SB800-SB900) indicate that the camera and flash settings are independent. The camera does not even see exposure compensation on the flash. And on Canon, on the contrary, everything is connected and controlled through the menu of the camera.

    Hello. Nikon D5100 and Yongnuo YN-565EX flash are available. There is a great desire to try out the Nikon CLS system in practice. Yongnuo 565 supports slave mode in CLS. But the built-in flash of my camera cannot work in Master mode. Question: if you purchase another “non-native” flash like “Shanny SN910 + Speedlite Master Flash i-TTL”, which can act as a Master, will the Nikon CLS work with my D5100 and Yongnuo 565 in slave mode?

      It makes no sense, even if it works, put an external flash to control Nikon CLS. It is better to sell YN-565EX and buy Shanny SN910EX-RF + radio synchronizer. It will be much more convenient

        In principle, I was going to set fire to the simpler 565th, mounted on a tripod, using the Shanny installed in the camera shoe via the optical channel (CLS). I need 2 external light sources with TTL support. And, yes, I forgot to say that the price of the issue is important. Not for commercial use, occasionally.

    Using this flash with the Nikon D5100, almost all flash functions work.
    I got a sync cable SC-29.
    I found that the autofocus backlight on the sync cable block does NOT work, regardless of whether the flash autofocus backlight is on or off (Fn4).
    Questions:
    - Is sync cable SC-29 compatible with this flash (in terms of AF-assist beam operation)?
    - if compatible, what settings need to be made in the device and on the flash in order for the autofocus illumination on the sync cord block to work?

    As I found out, using the SC-29 sync cable with YN-565EX flashes and others from the same company is completely pointless, because the main difference between this cable and the SC-28 is the presence of auxiliary AF illumination - it is NOT possible to use them in principle: on the legs of the mounts of all these flashes there are no two additional contacts necessary for the operation of the AF auxiliary illumination. Third-party SC-29 synchro cords do not have them either.

      I sold this flash because it is problematic to use it with radio synchronizers. The Yongs have been smart with their flash and sync lineup. It is inconvenient to use the “flash in the receiver shoe” sandwich. This puff cannot be master or slave on the radio channel. I discovered the Godox system. There is even a tiny pocket TTL flash for 2 AA batteries with a guide number of 30 can be both the master and the slave via the radio channel with a convenient menu for managing groups on the display, there is a high-speed sync and a couple of goodies. And Godox regularly release firmwares for their products. I downloaded it from the off-site and updated it myself via a micro-USB cord. Happy as an elephant.

        My dear - buy at least a manual Soviet flash "Electronics" at a flea market and tell us that it has richer functionality than the SB-910, and we will laugh.

        Don't be sulky, I'm sure Godox is a decent flash.
        Healthy competition among Chinese manufacturers will likely advance progress into unknown distances.

    All the same, I went to the Godox website, admired the fresh selection of flashes.
    Pocket truth was not found there. There is one on two batteries - TT350 for 85 ye, but it will hardly fit into your pocket. However, who has what pockets. I remember in early childhood I could shove a whole toad into my pocket.

    The website states that the TT350 is a mirrorless flash. I wonder if it won't work on DSLRs at all? How are they different?

      Godox is a good system, I have never worked with these flashes myself. Their attractiveness lies in the range from on-camera flash to studio flash, with several “intermediate” flash options, all flash units have a built-in radio channel and the ability to control from one controller on the camera.

      TT350 is made compact for small cameras. They immediately go with TTL under micro 4/3, fujifilm, etc. But if you watch a really high-quality and very compact flash with 4 batteries, then, in my opinion, this is the Nissin i40. She goes to different systems. Type in the search engine Nissin i40 Nikon sb700 and you will see the difference in size (despite the fact that the sb700 is a fairly compact flash).

        Thank you, Valentine. I once turned the Nissin i40 in my hands. In terms of build quality and plastic as a whole, it somehow does not at all correspond to the price tag, like that of a native.

        Someone attached legs to my SB-700, but again I need to look for something. It looks like you have to take the Yongnuo 685, because already have studio yongnuo.

        About Nissin i40. Pros: size (well, very compact for 4 batteries), build quality is actually good, reliable, there is a backlight for video, easy to carry in a protective case (such a hanging cube). Cons: the price tag is high, the power (for me) is insufficient (despite the 4 batteries and good components - the dimensions make themselves felt), primitive control and display (for such a price tag), not the most advanced functionality, in the "head-on" position not far enough from the lens axis (red eyes are present). In general, a good solution for a small mirrorless camera, but not an option for your camera. And the Godox TT350 will be even worse. The SB700 is more appropriate here, and the 900 is even better. Large, but the power and functionality are very good.

        Yes you are right. I need to stop doing nonsense, and take the SB-910.

        I once put some kind of Meike on D3s, so the camera didn’t recognize the flash, but refused to work at all. Now, somehow I'm afraid to put something step-by-step on her. But with the D610, this has never happened.

      And also about the TT350: on Nikon, it seems, there is also a variation. They differ in index. In my opinion, there should be a TT350N with a Nikon TTL.

    I use this flash for the 5th year. Overexposure and overexposure can easily do! Often, the first puff after turning on - the overexposure is terrible, then it works normally. Or, on the contrary, the first three five puffs are normal, then it is too thin, and then again normal. Moreover, I did the same shots at home, on fully charged PANASONIC Eneloop 2500mAh batteries, i.e. lighting conditions are the same only focal did different 17-50mm., but still did not reveal patterns. Immediately after the purchase, I replaced the transformer, put it from a flash from an old film soap dish, as well as a capacitor. Because of them, a flash often refuses to work. It works properly, but it has problems with lighting.
