5 out of 5 stars Best flash for the D series nikon   January 17, 2008
This is the best flash for the Nikon D-series cameras. It does a great ob of changing settings as your shooting event changes. Don't shop around for any other flash. bite the bullet and buy this one you will not be disappointed with you results.

Por lejos lo mejor como accesorio para sacarle el mejor provecho a mi D80. Para alguien no experto como yo soluciona todas las necesidades y logra grandes fotos.


5 out of 5 stars Just a good flash...   January 4, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I own two SB800's and an SB600 that I use with my D200 and D300, overall the flash is good. I will say that the Nikon Creative Lighting system is not great, I have had several issues where it ends up putting out too much light or not enough light, basically it ends up being inconsistent. In the end, I usually end up using the flashes in Manual remote mode, meaning that I set the flash output from the commander. I have gotten some great pictures from these flashes, and they work at quite a distance from the camera. Overall a great product.

On a side note, I decided to go with the SB800's instead of the 600's because of the flash sync port, that allows me to plug the flash into my flash sync port on my camera to ensure that it goes off when I need it to. Also the ability to use a battery pack with the flash is another added benefit. I have not gotten an external battery pack for it yet, but I am looking forward to that.

Finally, I just love being able to use AA's, because I can get a lot of rechargeable ones of those as opposed to the specialized batteries that my SB50 uses.



5 out of 5 stars A lot of flash   December 31, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Reading reviews between this speedlight and the SB 600 prompted the purchase of the SB 800. While I will not use this at full capacity now, I wanted a flash that will be ready to meet more advanced needs as I grow as a photographer. Right out of the box I was able to take better pictures with my D50. Even at its most basic, the SB 800 offers more lighting choices than the pop-up flash, with improved tone qualities and more natural shadowing (thanks to the ability to bounce as opposed to head-on). I'm still learning the technical aspects, so I was somewhat intimidated before purchasing, but I have no regrets. Only con is the flash is large and heavy. Not ideal for candids, but perfect for portraits and group shots, as well as still photography.


5 out of 5 stars Great Flash By Nikon   December 29, 2007
Great Flash, I'm glad I spent the little extra and got this over the SB600. The battery life is excellent and the cycle time is great even without the 5th battery. I recommend this flash very highly.
