Right, I've just picked up a bargainous D70 with 18-70, and need a flash.

I like the look of the Yongnuo flashes, but the 468 doesn't seem to be anywhere in Nikon flavour (most annoying, perhaps I've missed it?). I was really looking for something that did TTL/had zoom etc, and the Yongnuo would've been spiffing.

Is there anything out there of equivalent spec to the 468, or is it all just manual stuff? I used to have a Jessops 360AFD for my Canon Pro1, but it died in the post on the way to its new owner last week, so I'm not sure if I fancy another one.

Any suggestions?

/edit

Hmm, perhaps the Yongnuo 560 doesn't look that bad...?

Think the Nikon version is the 467

Edit - Nope, no lcd so not same as 468 but does have zoom and TTL

You won't get near the Yongnuo on price.

For about a ton you can get a Nissin Di622 Mk1. Does TTL and Zooms, it also has opticle slave, but can't be used with dumb triggers.

EDIT: I've got one, seems fine, but I really don't have anything to benchmark it against.
 
Cheers guys.

I knew I should've waited until later to purchase, as I just thought 'what the hell' and went for the 560 and completely missed the 467. TTL etc would've been nice, but TBH I used my last flash almost entirely manually anyway, so I don't think I'll be that bothered.
