Specification:
Improvements in this 2nd generation YN-468 II of this
top-selling flash unit aim at the weak spots of the 1st gen model
YN-468, our engineers are paying attention to what our customers
are saying.
Here are the upgraded features:
a), Improved New Battery Compartment
The 4 batteries are now all in a row with
a latch that flips open. This looks like a much better design now,
no more acrobatics required for a battery exchange.
b),Improved Optical Slave Sensor ( Located on the front
side of the flash, underneath the red plastic screen )
"S1" mode --- it is used with manual flash or Studio
flash.
"S2" mode --- it is designed for digital TTL flash. The special
thing about this mode is the ability for detect the ingnore the
tiny pre-flashes sent out by digital TTL systems before the shutter
actually opens.
The range is a little longer and the sensitivity is better than the
1st generation.
c),Improved (Laser) AF Assist Light
With the much improved AF assist light of YN-468 II, it can help
the camera find focus in darkness, and there's a bright red pattern
projected now which helps much better with low-contrast subjects
althoug it's still limited to the center AF field.

Our engineers also moved away from a simple LED but use a
laser-based system which explains the clearness of the pattern, as
well as the high range of the beam.
d), PC Sync Port
We built a PC sync port in the side of the YN-468 II, you can not
only trigger the flash through the flash foot, or with the optical
slave modes, but aslo through a PC Sync Cable.
e), Improved Buttons Design
It is sensitivity and better feeling to control.
And here are some other features:
1), TTL mode
The metering system of this camera will detect flash illumination
reflected back from the object so as to automatically control flash
output in this mode.
In this E-TTL mode, you can also make compensation of flash
brightness with the " Output contral knob" within the range of ±3
ev, with the precision of 1/3 ev. ( Only with this feature the
camera-flash combination can give you correctly exposed flash
photographs automatically.)
E-TTL can be set on the flash although the display just says “TTL”,
but it works with E-TTL I and also E-TTL II
camera bodies.
2), Auto Zoom
The flash speedlite will move forward and backward with the
changes of lens focus to suit different illumintion zones when it
is mounted on the camera which supports E-TTL Function, the zoom
range is 24mm - 85mm.
You also can set the focus position for the light head manually by
pressing the mode swithc button + Power button.
3), Multi Mode
It's the strobeflash mode, the flash light will output the power,
flash frequency and time flash you have set.
4), M mode
You can set flash luminance as per your favorite, luminance level
will be displayed by luminance indicator. When taking photos, you
only require setting the flash luminance, adjust the camera and
press the shutter, the flash light will flash under the camera
synchronous signal.
5), S1 Mode
It will work with the first work of the master flash synchronously
in this mode, with the result consistent with the use of radio
slave. ( When you use this mode, your master flash should be set at
manaul flash, the TTL flash system with pre-flash function and the
red-reduction function with multiple flashes should not be
used.)
6), S2 Mode
It is very similar to S1 mode, but it can support the master flash
in TTL mode. In particular, if S1 mode can not have correct and
synchronous flash with the inbuilt flash, you can try to use S2
mode.
Advanced Application:
a), Multi-Lamp Lighting Application
b), Exposure Bracketing ( FEB)
c), Use Wide-angle Diffuser
d), Rear-curtain Sync
e), FE Lock ( This function can only be available when your camera
supports it, for the setting of FE lick, refer to your camera
manaul)
f), Application of AF LED
g), Exposure Compensation
h), Feflection Flash
i), Use Reflection Board to take photos
