Digital camera reviews of Nikon SB-800 AF Speedlight for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras - Old Version
Digital camera Review: I USE THIS FLASH FOR CONCERT PHOTOS
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a Nikon D-90 which is am incredible camera. and since i mostly shoot concerts in low light to medium high light the pop up flash just didn't have the demand i needed, so i purchased the sb-800 flash and all I have to say is INCREDIBLE !!!! WHAT AN AWESOME PIECE OF EQUIPTMENT.Digital camera Review: I can't find anything bad to say about this unit
Summary: 5 Stars
You can do alot with this strobe, even studio shoots where you might ordinarily use a studio monolight or strobe setup. It is more intuitive to setup and use than the SB600, but it is a great master strobe to use in conjunction with an SB600. Being able to contol EV values from within the Nikon D300 is really nice. It comes with a diffuser and some gels. Good value for the money.Digital camera Review: I have a question
Summary: 5 Stars
I just bought a Nikon D80 and dont know much about cameras but love Photography, my question is Can I use this flash with my D80?Digital camera Review: Impressive Unit
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this Speedlight for my D70s. It is easy to take out of the box and fire up. But it's capable of a lot more than your standard portraiture and vacation shots.
I have been using this unit for in-store photography and it's worked wonders. The included filters help balance out the horrific fluorescent lighting found in most stores. While it's highly intuitive, I can also control it's output.
This is an essential part of any Nikon package.
Digital camera Review: Incredible flash right out of the box.
Summary: 5 Stars
I just received my SB800 a week after placing my order and was so anxious to use it, I didn't even bother reading the instructions. Popped in the 4 AA's, attached it to my D70, and started shooting at everything in the house. I am really impressed with how easy it can be to use and yet, so sophisticated and complex if you want to venture into the full capabilities of this flash. This is probably the best accessory that I can imagine for my camera. My camera's built-in flash tended to be quite harsh and unflattering whereas the SB800 produces much more pleasing lighting effects, especially when using the diffuser and bouncing off a wall or ceiling. Using the flash off the camera in the wireless mode is probably the most fun. It is interesting to see the variations of shadows and light in a portrait pose simply by moving the flash relative to the subject. The exposure was always correct and consistent. Also, it is surprisingly light and unobtrusive for something so powerful. This is a must have if you have a Nikon D70.
