The best of four different Nikon Speedlights over the past 15 Yrs!
I've had no problems with thermal shutdown on this flash. I always have the protection enabled. Perhaps those that have this problem always use bounce flash or use a diffuser box for all their flash shots. More >>

Fastest most powerful flash in the west
I have spent a great deal of money on great camera gear for my wife,
when I saw she was needing a flash, I knew it had to be powerful and fast ,
and it is. More >>

Flash not for professionals
This Flash was meant to be used by professionals and is suppose to substitute the older version SB-800. I use it a few times in a baby birthday party and it get heat very easy. More >>

Great with reservations.
I hesitated to buy this flash. The SB-600 was dated and no replacement was rumored, and I really wanted to buy one flash one time and not have to think about it. More >>

Great upgrade to the controls, overheating a nuisance
I'll start off by saying that the only reason I'm giving this product a 5 star rating is because of the option to turn off the overheating shut down. More >>
