5 out of 5 stars In case you were in doubt - buy the Nikon Sb-600   September 29, 2008
Mr. Lance P. Jacob (UK)

In case you were in any doubt, the Nikon SB-600 is the flash to buy for your Nikon D-SLR!

The highlights:
- Well made, quality feel. Nicely balanced on my Nikon D40
- Enough power to light every subject I have thrown at it
- Auto I-TTL setting makes fill-in flash easy
- Managed over 250 shots on one set of rechargeable batteries
- Team it with a Sto-fen omnibounce for soft shadows
- The light it produces seem quite 'warm' for a flash



4 out of 5 stars Still great after all these years   August 15, 2008

I've had this flash unit well over a year and it is only recently that I've learnt to understand its true potential and how to get it, which are bounced flash and off-camera wireless remote flash.

Firstly, the flash head can tip up 90 degrees as well as swivel up to 180 degrees anti-clockwise, i.e. the flash head facing backwards and 90 degrees clockwise. These two movements allows me to shoot bounced flash with the flash unit attached to the camera, in both landscape and portrait position, and it produces perfect exposure every time. The flash compensation (+/- 3 EV) on the camera body allows quick adjustment to the power output.

But the true flexibility and creativity comes from using the flash off the camera, using wireless remote. But you need to have the built-in flash turn on for it to work. The settings you have to do the camera and on the flash aren't straight-forward or intuitive (hence it took me ages to figure it out) but Ken Rockwell has provided a detailed guide on how to do this, so I'll just mention his link here (http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/ittlslave.htm).

It also adjusts the power output automatically as you change the zoom lens (provided it's between 28-85 mm).

I've taken pics using this in concerts when you're about 30-40' from the performer, and zooming in at 105 mm, the power output from the flash adjusts itself to light up the exposure and the recycle time is pretty quick too, so you don't miss that perfect shot.

I haven't used SB800 or the new SB900 so I can't make a comparison but for the type of photography I do, i.e. taking pics of friends and family, with a single flash unit providing lighting for the scenery, this SB-600 suits me just fine.

Bought this to use on my D300 and even though like the last reviewer I am relatively new to photography (and even newer to flash photography) I find this item easy to use straight from the box. It comes with a nice Nikon branded case and a stand for use "off camera" The inbuilt flash can be used to fire this Speedlight remotely, very clever.
It is infinitely better than the inbuilt flash and gives stunning flash lit photography. There is so much you can do with this unit that it can be quite a steep learning curve to get the best from it, but the manual (strangely for Nikon) is quite easy to follow and within half an hour I was firing it remotely, bouncing flash and firing continuos flashes while firing at 5 frames a second.
Highly recommended item. May come down in price shortly as Nikon has recently brought out a new top of the range SB900 so pushing this one down to No. 3 in the range.



5 out of 5 stars A really great buy   February 10, 2007

I bought this flash to go with my Nikon D40 and it works perfectly with it. I am a bit of a novice when it copmes to photography but I was pleasently surprised with the results I got using the 'bouce flash' technique.
I will never use the internal camera flash again!
In all a really worthwhile addition to an SLR.
