Hi folks, i was gifted the Yongnuo YN465 speedlight flash to go with my D5100, and for all the times i have used it i find it works really well for a brand i had never seen before.  But, i now want to use it off camera and am struggling to find a wireless hotshoe trigger system that will work well between the two.  I can find wireless flash triggers no problem but cant find one that says it will definitely work with this flash.  

 

I thought i might be lucky and find someone here who could point me in the right direction.

 

Thanks,

 

Ian.

I am not sure but flash system is the same for all Nikon cameras. So I think you can take any remote compatible with Nikon.
