The Chinese language Strobist blog has reviewed Yongnuo’s new ST-E2 Speedlite Transmitter, finding the 3rd party offering trumps the original Canon unit in several areas.
The Canon version of the Yongnuo YN-468 has been released on eBay for around US$110-130. One welcome feature is the addition of manually controllable zoom. For a comprehensive look into the features, take a look at this article on Speedlights.net.
