Hello,
Does anybody out there have any issues with the YongNuo YN24EX Macro Flash when paired with the Canon EOS 80D?
I recently bought the above flash, wanting to take up some macro and close-up photography.
The unit was not brand new, but was indeed very lightly used, if at all, the plastic covers were still intact.
A quick check, without being mounted on my camera showed that it was functioning and display was OK.
However, back home, mounted on the 80D, it does not function as intended, both in ETTL and Manual modes.
In ETTL, there is no second flash after the first.
It also seems to fire at full power all the time.
I wonder, if the YN24EX is compatible with the EOS 80D as the flash may have been designed before the 80D?
Or did I buy a dud?
The flash looks well designed and versatile, I would like to be able to use it if someone can help me figure out what is the problem with it.
