Nikon SB-600 Speedlight Flash for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras

Editorial Review:

When used in combination with Nikon's latest digital SLRs, the D70 or D2H, the SB-600 supports Advanced Wireless Lighting as a remote Speedlight that can be positioned as one of multiple remote flashes to significantly extend creative possibilities. To assist in such situations, the Speedlight SB-600 also has a readylight located beside the LCD on the rear panel that can be easily seen from a distance. The SB-600 can also emit an audible alert for further assistance. Easy-to-view LCD with 6 simple-to-understand backlit buttons Guide Number of 30/98 [ISO100,m/ft], 42/138 [ISO200,m/ft] (at 35mm zoom) Auto zoom of 24 to 85mm, extendable to 14mm with built-in wide-flash adapter Advanced Wireless Lighting available with D2H or D70 when used as a remote Auto FP High-Speed Sync (with D2H only); use with fast shutter speeds achieves effective blurring of out-of-focus background elements Flash Color Information - optimized white balance makes use of data from the Speedlight FV lock holds flash value, enabling recomposition prior to shooting Design consistent with those of next-generation D-SLRs, with a triangular design element on the top that complements the D-SLR motif Requires 4 AA Batteries (Alkaline or Rechargeable NiCad or NIMH) for use

What A Difference:

Yes, the flash comes with a manual but what a difference. Without it I was getting red eye, just put the flash on and red eye is gone. I was even able to take a picture of something behind glass by bouncing it slightly. I have just begun to discover all that it can do.

Outstanding Product:

I have taken several hundred pictures since purchasing the 600. Each picture was exposed perfectly to draw out the desired aspects of the subject. Well worth the cost.

partnered with d40:

...so far so good. somehow big for d40 but i guess if you want it more powerfull than sb40 then it has to be larger right? great controls resulting in great pics so far.

Great product:

This is a great addition to your DSLR. I have a Nikon D40 and the built-in flash is inadequate for indoor shots.
I tilt this flash straight up and bounce off ceiling. Pictures come out without the ugly glare look and very even.
You may think the price is expensive for just a "flash" but its well worth it. And don't try to go cheap with third party flashes, they don't communicate as well with the camera as first party models
