u can adjust the power of the flash. SB 900 is the most powerful flash that nikon has and it has commander mode where u can trigger other speedlites wirelessly and also u can connect external batt pack to it should u need faster recycle rate.
SB700 is a newer model which has almost wat SB900 had (if i m not wrong) but its not as powerful.
SB 600 is the more basic ones. does not have commander mode and not as powerful compare to the rest.
fyi, sb-600 has slightly more power than the sb-700.

I'm looking to get myself a external flash and I'm curious about whats the difference between SB600, Sb700 and Sb900. Can we actually adjust the brightness of the flash?
nightlights said:I think, I STRESSED again. I THINK.
All cannot do strobbing.
Only SB800 can.
If I am wrong. Please correct me.
I didn't research, just type what I think.
Dont need to sling mud at me.
All flash you listed can adjust brightness.

Speedlights are also known as flash light, artificial light, and strobes.
From the American Science Heritage Dictionary: "strobe light
A lamp that produces very short, intense flashes of light by means of an electric discharge in a gas. The ability of strobe lights to "freeze" the motion of rapidly moving objects by making them visible for only a fraction of a second makes them very useful in photography and in measuring vibration and other types of high-speed motion."
Nikon's Creative Lighting Solution (CLS) makes it possible for all their new-generation speedlights to communicate with each other. And as some of our members here already mentioned, SB900 and SB700 (as well as the older SB800) can trigger other Nikon speedlights while the SB600 cannot.
Sorry. I meant to say. Only sb800 can give out rapid burst of short burst flash. Am i correct? I need to go home to test. Am in KL now. I don't know the application of it. So never try before.

the SB800 and the SB900 can do it, it is the RPT mode
the SB600 can perform RPT flash if it is set via a commander during CLS, you cannot set it on the SB600
anyone tried it with the SB700? please update

hi, can advice how to do so?The SB700 doesn't have the setting.
However, I can command it with my D7000 to do so. Haha!
