If you haven’t bought the flash yet get the one with the rechargeable lithium batteries. I bought the original first because it was cheaper but quickly switched. Even 4 eneloop’s were only giving me around 100 shots before I had to switch them out, and recycle time was horrible. With the larger rechargeable batteries I can easily get 1000 shots with a much faster recycle time. And I don’t have to remember to bring a handful of extra batteries.
