I appreciate your humility at the beginning of the film as it relates to being a professional photographer. I thought you did a great job explaining each feature. Thanks.
I had my flash and i couldn’t get it to work so it was just collecting dust.. little did i know i just needed this video to make it work. YOU’RE the best
Thank youuu!!! It works a lot with my camera, I’ve been looking a solution every day and this is the only video it really works to me, thank you and blessings!!
I was able to get 4 of these flashes as over stock for about $20 a piece and I love them for studio work off camera using a flash meter. In slave mode I use them in soft boxes and 60 inch umbrellas no problem. The only time I'll put it on my camera is to trigger the other units. I'm retired and photography is my passion. I'm also cheap as hell and I buy everything used. For you I would recommend getting an old (like me) auto flash unit like a Vivitar 285HV or a Nikon SB28 (Yes I said Nikon and I know you have Canon) Auto flash has a flash output sensor in the flash that will quench the flash when the correct amount of light is reached. Look into auto flash. It's an old technology that still works and is very accurate. You set the sync speed, desired ISO, and the aperture on the camera then the aperture on the flash. Now you're all set. No more test shots for the correct exposure. The Vivitar 285HV was the life blood for wedding photographers for decades because it works.
Thank you for your input! Since this video l have upgraded to a canon and godox flash. I still have both of my neewer flashes though and find them good and reliable. They are a great beginner flash
Your video is a savoir, I just bought one and it couldn’t just work with my canon 80D. I seeked for answers in many UA-cam videos from professionals but still couldn’t figure it out not until I came across your video. 👌
I also couldn't work it out on 80D, and now can't work it out on R50. Hopefully these tips help. It is very odd, when I put the same flashlight to Olympus pen, it works instantly.
Thank you so much for posting this video. Looked everywhere and you were the only who could properly explain why things weren't working. And just like you, I was using the viewfinder to test out my Speedlite 😊
Omg thank goodness for this video. I was trying so hard to figure this out !!! I’ve had this flash for months and still nothing now I got it. Thank you!
Your pup is a good model. Mine depends on how he feels. When he sees the camera, he knows what is going on and then decides he wants to be a model or not. :) Great video, thanks for sharing. Great information in general on flash photography, which I am still experimenting with all the time.
Hey hey hey no clue how i found you but it was delightful to watch you. I am superglad I found such a channel like yourself to support. I was looking into this flash and the way you review, hits homerun!
Thank you so much for your review !! I was about to return my speed lite and then after watched your video I could fixed my problem . Thanks again !!✌🏼
Thanks - this looks like a really good flash for a hobbyist, without costing hundreds of dollars, the kind of thing that even in the unlikely event that it didn't work out, you aren't out a ton of money!
Hi, this is really a great video! This is what exactly I was looking for. I have a question for you? Will this work on a cannon m50 mirrorless camera and will the exposure meter adjust automatically if I play around with flash light’s flashing intensity.
Well, I'm sold. I'm getting back into digital photography after 10+ years. I've just been using my camera on my phone. I bought a couple used bridge cameras off of eBay for $30. I'm now looking for a flash. This would be perfect for me.
This video helped me so much! You explain things like a pro. My morning started with coffee and you tube videos so I can finally take my speed light out of the box. So glad I found your channel. I have a rebel t5i and went with Godox around the same price point. So I can beat the s@#$! out of it. :) keep up the great work. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
I just picked up the neewer speed lite recently and was hoping to learn how to sync it to my godox trigger to use as an off camera flash (like the title suggested) but you never got to using the flash off the camera in slave mode.. 🫤 Also you kept calling the screen the “actual viewfinder” when it’s the other way around. The thing you look through is actually the viewfinder and the screen shows a live view. 😅 Aside from that, thanks for the video
Thank you for this review! I'm planning to shoot a barn wedding next month and I'm very new to using flash. I'll be using it in my Fuji. Keep up the great videos
How about stopping the lens down to put the output power to some use??? There is a REASON why we have high GN flash units: being able to light up larger spaces, hitting stuff that's far away with sufficient light, fill-in light ... and being able to get decent DOF when doing a close-up.
At 3:54 you attached the flash unit to the plastic desktop mount, and said "This is just a hot-shoe". I am pretty sure there are no metal connectors on that desktop mount. I believe it's for a different purpose.
I took two, flashlight like this and none of them is working. Could someone explain me why or how they solved this issue. I have the lights on on the camera, i can swap between the modes but for test and stuff is not flashibg just.
i just followed this one but my flash is not working . i am using metz 44af-1 maybe im missing something or may e this flash works only i. automatic mode but not in manual mode? is there a dedicated manual flash only?
Thank you so much. Tomorrow is a photo meet up and it looks like it will be very overcast. Hoping I can get some good exposures despite my slow canon lenses.
Sheila, at around 9.01 you say you can't have the Viewfinder on. You mean the LiveView screen. This only works when you use the Viewfinder (the little window), the LiveView should be off.
I have the same camera and do mostly natural light portraits and have done a few small weddings. Unfortunately all my photos during the dancing were grainy bc I don't have any additional flash and didn't want to use my camera's flash. I just got hired by an events and wedding company so I'm excited to get more experience. I want to invest in some equipment but not spend too much either. This seems like it'll work well for the price. 🤞🏽
What a great video !!! Thanks for the info ! And a big clap to your awesome model !!!!!! 🤩 he is so cute!! Thanks again ! It helped me. a lot ! I’m no profesional just looking for hobby as well! Thanks again for Sharing ❤
Sheila - very nice video. I've had the TT560 for a couple of years but need to pull it out for a project so I can brush up on the correct settings. Thanks.
Very helpful tips on this TT560 Speedlight. I'm a newbie with using a Canon camera/ pictures.. definitely will get this and give it a go with my 1st Canon 800D . See how it works. Thank you so much Shelia! Appreciate you!👍💚..Seb🙂📸
New subscriber here!!! Thanks for this video it was very informative. I have the same speedlite and I was having g a hard time getting it to connect.. This video helped soo much. Thanks for showing a photo with the different strengths of the flash.
Is there an option to leave the flashlight on permanently? Without having to press the shooter button to turn on the light for night time video filming?
The flash mode isn’t working on my camera. I can’t even go to it to change it to manual. Can you help? This was VERY HELPFUL though. I am having the same issues! I hate it will not go off when doing self portraits. 😩😩😩😩 thanks so much for this video and sharing. 🖤🖤
@@joetyler4017 I’ve gotten a new camera since, so it may not have been compatible with my crop sensor! So sorry. Wish I did so you could have an answer. 😢😢😢
I just bought my very first External flash (nikon SB 700) and it was working for a few minutes but then it stopped working all suddenly... What do you think happening with That ?😭
Speedlites made by Canon, and for Canon cameras by other companies, have five pins on the bottom of the flash. The camera communicates with a Speedlite in the camera's hot shoe through these pins. The Flash menu on the camera will recognize a Speedlite in the hot shoe if it has five pins in its foot.
Thank you for this video its very helpful. I am starting out and am looking at this from amazon also as i have no prior knowledge of using flash, this product looks to be good value for a newbie to adventure in and get started with. Your dog is lovely also mines not as a good as yours. Thanks again great video.
Came for the flash settings, stayed for the obedient dog getting his photos taken. Wholesome📸
Hahaha❤️
I appreciate your humility at the beginning of the film as it relates to being a professional photographer. I thought you did a great job explaining each feature. Thanks.
Thank you so much!
It's been years since I've used my camera. This video helped to refresh my memory on how my Neewer SF-01 light works! Thank you! 📸
I was trying to find out why it wasn't firing, thank you!
I shall drop a like.
I had my flash and i couldn’t get it to work so it was just collecting dust.. little did i know i just needed this video to make it work. YOU’RE the best
Thank you! Finally got mine to work after years of sitting in a drawer.
Thumbs up. Love to hear an honest review, from a regular hobbyist, and not a professional
Thank you for this video! Helped me figure out why the flash wasn’t syncing properly 😊 Theo is a fabulous model!
Glad l could help! ❤️
Thank youuu!!! It works a lot with my camera, I’ve been looking a solution every day and this is the only video it really works to me, thank you and blessings!!

@@ItsSheila Get a couple of light stands and a couple of reflective umbrellas and you are on your way to having a photo studio set up.
You know more about using a flash properly than the lady doing the video... thanks for taking the time to explain the benefits of auto flash!
Humble, honest, kind and well done! Great intro! Thanks.

Very well explained… i just purchased my first flash.. let’s see how it goes once get delivered…✌️
Omg thank goodness for this video. I was trying so hard to figure this out !!! I’ve had this flash for months and still nothing now I got it. Thank you!
Will this work for my cannon eos m50? I already have it but I don’t have the same flash setting as you
Yes
Yes it works perfectly
Your pup is a good model. Mine depends on how he feels. When he sees the camera, he knows what is going on and then decides he wants to be a model or not. :) Great video, thanks for sharing. Great information in general on flash photography, which I am still experimenting with all the time.
You have to catch them at the right time haha! Mine is a big baby. Thanks for watching
@@ItsSheila good point. Mine already knows when he sees the camera and pretends he is a "fabio" of pups. :)
I cant set up in on my EOS 5DSR, the menu is not active because compability
I have many Neewer products.
I have always been very happy 😊
Thank you for this review, I just bought this flash. BTW, you have the most attentive model ;)
I am using this one. Highly recommend

Superb good experience with flashlight Thanks good neat explain ... Aby from India 🇮🇳 I will buy it.. Flash for my markII
Thanks for troubleshooting! I was having the same problem and this video helped right away! 😊✨
WHY IS THE DOG SUCH A GREAT MODEL??? NATURAL.
This flash just cost me $70 on Amazon I’m mad😂 but thank you for this it helped tons!!
Thank you for this review! I'm planning to shoot a barn wedding next month and I'm very new to using flash. I'll be using it in my Fuji. Keep up the great videos
This was very helpful! And I loved the fact that your dog actually posed for you 🥺
He's the best!❤️
Thank you for the great video Sheila! I just purchased one for my Sony A6000 and I'm looking forward to putting it to good use!
Just got this one , video was very helpful !!! Thank You !!!
This is a really nice flash for the money
Thanks, I was using the view finder and it wasn't flashing, so you were right on point with that helpful tip.
You mean...you were using the LiveView and it wasn't working. The Viewfinder is the small window about the LiveView.
How about stopping the lens down to put the output power to some use??? There is a REASON why we have high GN flash units: being able to light up larger spaces, hitting stuff that's far away with sufficient light, fill-in light ... and being able to get decent DOF when doing a close-up.
My canon t5i! Thank you!!!! ❤️🤝😍
I came for the flash and re watch for the dog! what a model
I bought the same brand of flashgun for my Nikon and if I click pictures on manual mode half of the pic come as black. How can I rectify this please
Thank you, keep it up. You will gain knowledge with experience. Don't get discouraged.
Great video! Followed the steps in this video and flash worked for my Canon M50, thank you so much! 😊
Gracias sheila. Te pasaste este tutorial salioo bacanisimo. Me callo como anillo al dedo. No sabia usarlo y contigo aprendi. Thanks again!
HJCiprian Gracias!
I'm having this problem with my R50 flash won't work. And I don't have the the same options on my menu
Thank you so much for this breakdown, had been struggling with the not compatible message on my 800D
I'm the same like you but I likes your the you make it all the details you it was very helpful thanks
At 3:54 you attached the flash unit to the plastic desktop mount, and said "This is just a hot-shoe". I am pretty sure there are no metal connectors on that desktop mount. I believe it's for a different purpose.
WOOW THIS VIDEO HAS HELPED ME ALOT THANKS IVE BEEN WONDERING FOR THE LONGEST HOW IT WORKS I EVEN JUST ORDERED A WIRE LOL
I took two, flashlight like this and none of them is working.
Could someone explain me why or how they solved this issue.
I have the lights on on the camera, i can swap between the modes but for test and stuff is not flashibg just.

Flashes typically only work in manual mode
I can not for the life of me get this to work on my rebel t7. It won’t let me change etts setting it’s like grayed out
ashley kepaa attach the flash to the camera and start using it through the viewfinder. Let me know if that works
@@ItsSheila omg I was wasn’t using it with my viewfinder that’s why it wasn’t working. Thanks so much
Thank you so much. Tomorrow is a photo meet up and it looks like it will be very overcast. Hoping I can get some good exposures despite my slow canon lenses.
Mucha gracias por mostrarnos🙌🏼✨
Realmente no sabía cómo emparejarlo

how did it work
This is what I need! You helped me a lot thanks❤️
thank you so much especially at 6:35 when you explain how to connect it to the canon body!!!!
Your video just saved my bacon thanks
When I go to built in flash to change to manual the flash mode won’t let me click on it to change to manual like you did ?
Hehehe such a cute doggy ☺️☺️🤗🌺🐕🐶hope it got lots of treats after wards
What a great video !!! Thanks for the info ! And a big clap to your awesome model !!!!!! 🤩 he is so cute!! Thanks again ! It helped me. a lot ! I’m no profesional just looking for hobby as well! Thanks again for Sharing ❤
Thank you for this .Be blessed .This video has helped me alot .
You did a great job explaining it’s all I needed thanks 🙏
Really great video, thank you so much for your tutorial! I'm going to order mine right now!
My flash is firing but the bottom of pictures is blacked out, if that makes any sense. Any advice??
Your shutter speed may be too high. Try under 200
Theo is adorable!
😊
Everything is working well, but when I test it, the flash isn’t going off, is there a reason for that?
Sheila - very nice video. I've had the TT560 for a couple of years but need to pull it out for a project so I can brush up on the correct settings. Thanks.

Canon 6d mark 2 witch settings and in what for stand?.
Thanks this helped me fix my friends flash
I was helped by this video. God bless you.
New subscriber here!!! Thanks for this video it was very informative. I have the same speedlite and I was having g a hard time getting it to connect.. This video helped soo much. Thanks for showing a photo with the different strengths of the flash.
Thanks Alot, Yhooo I was stressing thinking that I've ordered a wrong flash light
Glad l could help
Fue super funcional, GRACIAS!
Greetings and Thank you for this video... Is this flash comparable with Cannon?? I have a t3i and I'm looking for an external flash to purchase. Thx!!
I recently got this but my pictures come out half dark/black and half with flash. I have a Canon rebel t6
Change the shutter
Is there an option to leave the flashlight on permanently?
Without having to press the shooter button to turn on the light for night time video filming?
Probably you mean monolight. The one in the video is called speedlight, the flash goes with every shutter, but monolight is just light normal light.
This video was very helpful thank you
So glad I found this video,would this flash be suitable for school photography?is it fast enough to photoshoot kids
Thanks for this video you were a big help!
The flash mode isn’t working on my camera. I can’t even go to it to change it to manual. Can you help? This was VERY HELPFUL though. I am having the same issues! I hate it will not go off when doing self portraits. 😩😩😩😩 thanks so much for this video and sharing. 🖤🖤
Yes this is what happened to me. Did you ever figure out the solution?
@@joetyler4017 I’ve gotten a new camera since, so it may not have been compatible with my crop sensor! So sorry. Wish I did so you could have an answer. 😢😢😢
Thank you so much! You helped me tremendously!
I just bought my very first External flash (nikon SB 700) and it was working for a few minutes but then it stopped working all suddenly... What do you think happening with That ?😭
Hmmm? Did you check the batteries? Maybe some corrosion happened? It happened to me once for leaving the batteries in all the time.
When I went on flash control and click on built in flash says “this menu can not be displayed. An accessory is attached to the camera hot shoe”
Kel Rochelle yes, you have to adjust this prior to putting the lens on. I have been loving mine, hope you like yours as well!
Kel Rochelle take it off and try again. Then put it on.
Speedlites made by Canon, and for Canon cameras by other companies, have five pins on the bottom of the flash. The camera communicates with a Speedlite in the camera's hot shoe through these pins. The Flash menu on the camera will recognize a Speedlite in the hot shoe if it has five pins in its foot.
Thank you so much 🤞🏽🤞🏽🔥
This was a really good tutorial.
Does it work with canon t100?
Thanks for the help!
Thank you! You’re the best 🎉
Do u know if this Neewer TT560 works with Canon t4i? Thank u
Thank you so much! I was thinking I was crazy bc it wouldn’t work.
Is that flash compatible with canon eos 2000d
i know i’m super late but i tried this with my t100 rebel and it didn’t work
Great Review thanks,,going to buy one now
Really helpful thank you 💜

Thank you! I ended up buying a second flash cuz l liked it so much!
This was really helpful! Thank you
