Hong Kong: Godox, the flash manufacturer, have added to their ThinkLite TT520 with a new, higher-powered model called the ThinkLite TT560. The latest unit is identical to the original ThinkLite except for the flash guide number, which has been boosted from 33 to 38.
The TT series shares some similarities with Yongnuo’s YN460 and YN460-II manual off-camera flashgun range, but has a different control interface and offers adjustment all the way down to 1/128 power (compared to 1/64 on Yongnuo).
