I'm thinking of buying flash for my D50. I read from the last forum na mas oks ang SB800 pero pag kulang sa budget pwede narin SB600 right? :) Whats the market price for these flashes? so i may have an idea on how much i should save up.

depends where you get but the average for the sb600 is around 8-9g while the sb800 is 18-18.5g

sa henrys, 17500 ang sb800 :)

Sa Mayer the SB 800 is 17 thousand

wow thats a big drop from the last time i checked

Hi Terry, if you are looking for a budget, better get the sb600. it's faster to recycle, a little smaller than SB800. I'm happy with SB600.

I have both, i agree the SB600 more than cope with most of mys hoots. I do use the SB800 for CLS to trigger my SB600 and in situations where I need a longer reach.

just bought an SB800 in hongkong few days ago and it came out around 15k

Thanks for all the infos! i need to save lots!

i ordered mine online for $300, shipped to my cousin in the US and will be arriving this saturday, can't wait to test my new sb800!

wow! buti ka pa! :)

ang sb600 ba hindi capable sa CLS?

ang sb600 ba hindi capable sa CLS?

SB600 cannot function as a commander. It can fuction as a remote flash though.

Thanks for all the infos! i need to save lots!

Since you're in the process of saving Terry... Go for the SB800 nalang! :Grin: You'll enjoy it's greater versatility later. :)

SB800 nalang sir. from what I have observed from nikonians after getting the SB600 most of them upgraded to an SB800.

Question:

Does the SB-600 also have a tilting/rotating head as in the SB-800? (bounce effect)

Thanks

also contemplating :)

it has that feature also.:)

thanks sir gerry. i know it tilts, but does it also rotate backwards and sideways?

thanks

my suggestion ala commercial:

"pwede both?"


so you can play CLS on your d50.

haha. tight budget sir kaya baka sb-600 lang for a newbie and hobbyist :)

thanks :)

wow! buti ka pa! :)

Terry,

Current Ebay price of SB-800 is $250-$300.:)

used an sb600 on the d70. but looking forward to adding the sb800. (using a d50 now)

the sb600 wont let you down. :)

Malayo talaga itsura wise yun SB800 sa SB600. The SB800 looks more durable and well built plus SB800 is Made in Japan while SB600 is Made in China. Siguro you'd want to consider that as well.

nung nag ask ako sa aperture trading (i think can't remember) it was around 13K

Pwede ba lagyan ng extended battery yung SB600 gaya ng SB800?

Thanks.

hindi po nalalagyan ng extended batt yung sa sb600.

but i think you may rig it like so: http://www.flickr.com/photos/82879958@N00/212018804/

caveat! Do this at your own risk. may fry your speedlight.

Another question: Can I trigger the SB600 using a flash trigger?
If ever I'll be using a D50 (w/out remote commander) can I use a flash trigger to remotely fire the SB600.

Thanks.

As for the DIY battery pack, no thanks =) he he he

I think it can using the SU-4 mode. sori never really used an SB600, I've tried it on my SB 26 and SB800 and it works :)

no su-4 mode for the sb600, sorry.
