 Nikon SB-600 March 1, 2006

The speedlight is a great accessory item, but setting it up initially to work on your camera and remotely requires some time and you need both instruction manuals. After learning how to set it up, I would not be without it.
Great flash for my D70. Lots of power and many features. February 27, 2006

This flash will give you a lot of control over the way it lights your subjects. I am not sure if I will ever use it off camera (one of the main features of this flash) as I would rather use my studio lights when doing portraits. Having said that, if you don't have access to good studio lighting, (or your working outside and need to set up a quick fill flash) the 600 is probably the next best thing.
I am most excited about the ability of the flash to work in burst mode with my D70 and the numerous sync options. I'm really looking forward to working more with this flash and highly recommend it based on price, number of features, ease of use, power and of course, Nikon quality.
If you're looking for something that is simply a step above your on-camera flash and don't need/want a lot of bells and whistles, you might want to look for a cheaper flash.
More than enough flash power for your digital Nikon February 26, 2006

I bought a Nikon D70S to learn digital technique. My magazines are all moving to digital so it became a practical imperative. But I quickly learned that the D70s' built in flash was too limited for pro work. I borrowed a SB-800 and found that it produced a very hot image - even with the soft-dome installed. I asked a friend if he experienced the same thing and he said, sheepishly, yes. Next, I tried the SB-600 and, amazingly, the images were perfect. And it was a many bucks cheaper.
Recycle time is good. It works like every other modern Nikon flash I have and it even will work on my F5 film camera.
Size and weight are good. The wide angle adapter is easy to use and works right out to the edge of my 20-35mm F2.8 lens.
I use it with lithium AA's and I love them because they stay strong in cold weather (well worth the extra expense).
The real cool feature is the ability to do "off camera" wireless flash. It comes with a little stand so you can place the light where you want it - nice touch.
I have to say that the unit has a real Nikon feel - solid, quality, robust.
I am very happy with this purchase. I think I probably will move up to the SB-800 ( if I can figure out the exposure thing) when I buy the D200 later this year but for now, while I learn digital, this is one heck of a bargain.
Measured Light for All Conditions February 21, 2006

This baby has all the bells and whistles 90% of us ever need. Compared to my old SB-22(now outdated for digital cameras)it is almost a high-end computer. From fill flash on the beach for faces to creative portraits and action-stopping shots it does everything. But BE SURE to get the instruction manual(not included in my package)from Nikon for ten bucks, unless you don't mind downloading and printing up to 91 pages of crucial information. The results will make all of your days!
Nice product for this amateur. February 18, 2006

What can I say...it's a flash. It disburses the light nicely and made a big difference in the quality of photographs versus the built in flash. It has all of the features I would ever need at half of the price as the next model up (the SB-800).
