Used Yongnuo YN600EX-RT Speedlight Flash

A workhorse speedlight for Canon shooters who want reliable off-camera flash without the price tag.

The Yongnuo YN600EX-RT is one of those flashes that earns its keep: strong output, solid bounce-and-swivel movement, and built-in 2.4GHz radio so you can run it on-camera or off-camera in Canon’s RT-style ecosystem. If you’re building a simple two-light kit, or you just want one dependable speedlight that can grow into a system later, this is a very practical choice.

Why photographers like the Yongnuo YN600EX-RT

• Built-in 2.4GHz radio with master/slave options → supports Canon RT-style wireless triggering and grouping (and can work alongside Canon/Yongnuo RT transmitters and flashes) → cleaner off-camera setups without extra receivers dangling.

• Strong output for real-world rooms and events → guide number listed as 197' / 60m at ISO 100, 200mm → enough punch to bounce, compete with ambient, or light small groups.

• Useful zoom range for controlling spill → 20–200mm coverage (with a wide-angle panel for 14mm coverage) → lets you focus the beam or spread it out depending on the modifier and distance.

• Bounce and swivel for fast, flattering light → tilts from -7° to 90° and rotates 180° left/right → quick ceiling/wall bounce without contortions.

• High-speed sync and curtain sync support → supports high-speed sync up to 1/8000s plus 1st/2nd curtain sync → more control over ambient brightness and motion feel.

• AA-powered and event-friendly → runs on four AA batteries → easy to keep going with spares (and simple to source on the road).

Tradeoffs to know

Like most AA speedlights, recycle time and consistency depend heavily on your batteries. For heavy shooting (events, fast sequences), high-quality NiMH rechargeables (or an external pack if you use one) can make a noticeable difference. Also, this is Canon-compatible—if you’re on Nikon/Sony/Fuji/Olympus hot shoes, you’ll want the correct version for your system.

Condition

GOOD — shows moderate wear consistent with normal use. Fully functional.
