No, the YN-600ex-RT is a copy of the Canon 600EX-RT and is not compatible with the YN-622C system.

For ETTL flash I would get a YN-622C-TX transmitter, a YN-565EX II, and a YN-622C transceiver. Two YN-622C transceivers operate fine by themselves, but if you get one YN-622C-TX transmitter and a YN-622C transceiver, you can make flash setting changes right on the YN-622C-TX instead of going into the camera flash menu.

If you want just Manual flash, there are many other Yongnuo choices as well.

All these Yongnuo flash choices can be overwhelming. I find Flash Havoc is a great resource for sorting through all the choices. http://flashhavoc.com/gear-guides/

Thank you so much for the info!  Yes, it can be a little daunting!
