Nikon Speedlight SB-800 TTL Flash

Nikon Speedlight SB-600 TTL Flash

$244.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.thenerds.net
it's not the same as the sb800...sb800 is more powerfull and has more features such as an extra battery capartment on the side of the flash which gives faster recycle times.
from "glenjust", www1.wolfcamera.com
it can be used as a replacement for the built-in flash giving a much faster recycle time and more flexibility in low light situations.
from www.walmart.com
the only downside is the flash recycle time...it takes a few seconds.
from www.ritzcamera.com
the recycle time is good, the battery life is good, the light output could be a little better.
from www.amazon.com
