not trying to put Nissin down, because I think they've done a great job to produce an SB900 competitor at a much lower price point.
But apparently (from some websites), Nissin have overstated the power of their flash. I need to search for the site, but I remember reading that the GN was actually lower than SB800.

The things I like about the 866:

• good price
• wireless commander/slave with iTTL
• sub-flash unit (which may or may not be useful)

lolx.. where got poison you? i was merely trying to help u make a more inform decision.

anyway... Di866 is almost comparable as SB 900.

Pros

• Cheaper by half the price
• A little more powerful
• ETTL
• Wireless Trigger
• Bound Card

Cons

• Recycle time a little slower than SB 900
• A little harder to find diffuser as its a little bigger than SB 900
• Its 3rd party

For more details of DI866. Click here for the full technical specification

the power of the flash is automatically adjusted when zooming right?

think for me the purpose of getting a speedlight is to do fill flash, light up ambiance and also to boost SS when lighting not strong enough to get rid of motion blur. any comments?

 

[ricochetsng]

Well it doesn't affects the image quality, just see the dust makes me feel so uneasy. Hahaha...
Anyway the brushing technique I found on Youtube, mirrors is alright but not the sensor...

Not much point to go to ISO 100, because it's below the camera's base ISO of 200, and you actually get a poorer image as a result. The dynamic range is reduced at ISO100 compared with ISO200, and that's NOT a good thing

 

[felixkcsin]

i think L1.0 is not genuine ISO 100, most likely rendered by ISO 200 by reducing the brightness. it's better to set ISO 200 than L1.0

Not true.

According to this:

And click on dynamic range
