Hi, i was wondering if anyone had experience with this speedlight, i am looking to purchase 2 for my Canon 600d for automotive photography and i have no experience with any speedlights. My budget is $200 Australian dollars ($150usd) for both.
i am hoping to get similar results to this
I have experience with these speedlights

I've got two of the mark 560 III, and they're good. They work well, using the radio transmitter works really well, especially for the ability to change the settings from the transmitter, so not having to walk over to your flashes (Helpful if they're set up in really hard to reach locations.) They should be powerful enough. In aus, you can get a set of two 560 IIIs with the transmitter for 200 dollarydoos, I presume you can do the same with the IVs.
Main thing is to learn how to use them. Go to the strobist blog and go through all of his tutorial thing. It's good.
They are pretty good, and that's basically what you will pay for one no matter where you import it from.

It's a manual flash. You have to do simple math to figure out power settings in order to get correct exposure. It is NOT a TTL flash.
And the wireless part is only valid if your camera can transmit the correct frequency to remotely trigger it, or you are prepared to use the camera's popup-flash to trigger it via detected light flashes.

if you are in brisvegas I have several nikon and canon triggers for this flash.
