Pros Awesome improvement in shot quality. Feels well worth it's cost.
Cons At around 310, not exactly cheap. The equally good 600 is 200.00.
Recommended it? Yes



The SB800 costs about 310 dollars US and that's the bad news.

Add this flash to your Nikon DSLR and you will quite literally get a new WORLD of quality shooting from your camera. Those who use built in flashes have no idea why... Read full review »

Pros Battery life seems to be improved, better control interface, same SB-800 quality.
Cons Larger than the SB-800, uses different color filters than the SB-800.
Recommended it? Yes
