nissin 622 ii

[aeronic]

I've decided to buy a nissin 622 mark ii for Canon, but the question now is where from!

Onestopdigital seem to be cheapest, but HK based.
Then there's ebay


Has anyone bought a Nissin flash, from a dealer they could recommend?

I got it in Nikon fit a couple of weeks back, they do Canon and at same price..

cheapest I could find it in the UK, quick delivery and its a superb flash probably one of the best I have used, love the wireless communication between the flash and D7000, no need for triggers

I've just got the same from the same ebay outlet as above, ordered sunday night and delivered on tuesday morning. Excellent flash, nearly got a suntan when I tried it on full power. Seems more powerful than my Di866. For what it's capable of, at £95, delivered in 2 days you really cant go wrong.

Was the more powerful then the 866 an exaggeration or serious?

I think that is an exaggeration:

Well from about 2 feet away I pressed the pilot button by mistake while it was on full power and not only did I see a big green blob for the next 20 minutes or so I felt the heat on my face that was generated. I'm not volunteering to do a similar test with the 866 to compare but it was pretty powerful.

Lol prob not a good idea.

Check Camera World - I bought my Nissin from there for about £80.

To round off this thread, bought the nissin 622 mk 2 from a HK seller. £85 from ebay, and was lucky not to receive any duty fees.

Its £100 at 7dayshop but I would email to confirm if it is mkII

It was definately the MkII I got, but that was about 2 months ago and prices have definately gone up since. I got a Canon 580EX II at the start of november for £302, when I checked just before christmas they were up to £399. Quite a hike in a month and a half. But believe it or not, Ive just checked at 20.27 on the 6th Jan and they are priced at £302.99 + £7.99 p&p now. Quite a drop now christmas has gone.
