Incredibly, I fixed the flash on my YN-560 at the suggestion of a helpful commenter. :-O (Kindly stand up and be recognized, sir... :) ). It wasn't as easy as I thought it might be but was not hard either. I will post shots. Caution: I don't know if the fix I did will work for other YN-560 units with zoom issues.

That was fast ! I just commented a couple of hours ago. :)
ReplyDeleteWas I right ?? just the gears not touching ? I hope to see your fix here and in the flickr:strobist forum. :)
I hope you took "well lighted" pictures.. you are a strobist.
