Which speedlight type flash and trigger for a d810?

[scoped]

Hi all,

Been a while since I bought any gear so am a bit out the loop. I bought a Yongnuo speedlight for my Canon 60D and it worked well, but I'm not sure what's the best buy for Nikon!
It would be mainly for portrait/people and occasional macro work.

What speedlight type flash should I get (I imagine I will end up with two flashes even if I start off with just the one). Also what trigger system would be best?
I have used a YN568EX flash and YN622N-KIT trigger a few times, but no idea if these are current.

The Yongnuo is still available but the YN685 has a built in receiver, saving some hassle.

Alternatively, there’s the Godox TT685 which also has a built in receiver, and uses the same transmitter system as a whole host of other flashes from Godox.

If you only ever want to use speedlights, Yongnuo is cheaper, but if you want flexibility, seriously consider the Godox system

I really like the Godox system and use the v860iiN with my D4 & Godox transmitter - system works really well.

I bought into the Godox system after reading the recommendations on here and have found it to be very good.

I have the xpro trigger, AD200, and some speedlights.

I have not been disappointed and will continue to purchase more when needed.

Another one here using the Godox system and it’s cross compatibility with various camera systems should make it pretty full proof for the future
