Butties, ahtiow have a dilemma here.......but I think after I post up my 'dilemma' here I would be bombarded with more dilemmas here, but heck, wanna know what TS butties think.....here's my 'dilemma':

Gonna buy a strobe this month. Initially wanna get SB 800, but now found out SB 600 can get under $300, its about $200 difference for me. Yes, $200 is a substantial amount for me cos now aiming to get Tammy 17-50mm, Nikkor 105mm micro....I'm using D50, I want to get strobe for events (wedding, gathering, etc) and macro only. Cos I dont think my D50 can support CLS, last time checked with a buttie, cant do off camera lighting, can only flash when strobe mounted on camera only. SO how? SB 600 or SB 800???:confused:

Cheers

even if no CLS, u can use SB800 SU-4 mode and activate it via you cam body built-in flash, SB600 doesn't support SU-4 mode. Also, its hard to get brand new SB800 now (if u got lobang, i want to buy also). therefore, comparing prices of 2nd hand SB800 (~$400) in B&S and SB600, differential is only $100+. And SB800 comes with the diffuser whereas SB600 doesn't. it costs u $15 for 3rd party SB600. hence, further reducing the differential to $80+ dollars.

Just go get SB800 lah (2nd hand of course)...:)

bro,

first, you must understand the GUIDE NUMBER constant for flash. The GUIDE NUMBER will tell you the range of operation that this flash is able to support you. If I am not wrong, for normal situation like wedding for group photo, SB600 should be able to cover the distance already pretty well.

do check the guide number first.

Rule No. 1: Strobe is not equal SB800/SB600, at least u dun call them strodes
Rule No. 2: SB800/SB600 is commonly known as external flash/speedlite
Rule No. 3: Owing a flash is a must for every photograher
Rule No. 4: Mounting on the camera is good enough for wedding/events/macro
Rule No. 5: SB800 no stock in SG, unless 2nd hand
Rule No. 6: No CLS, still can achieve off camera flash

I vote for SB800 anytime..but stock wise..:think:
Dun noe Lords still have a not..
 

Allo buttie...wishing u alot of snow for Tanglin Mall outing tomolo...:)

SB600 GN (30) is lower than SB800 (38). But for Nikon system, its not only about the GN but the extra commander mode and the SU-4 mdoe that comes with the SB800.
