[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 167189, member: 12496"] Waiting until the second one for the SB-910 seems wise. Then you will better know what you need and want. To use two flashes with the Commander, they need not be identical models. The Nikon Commander system is definitely at its best with two TTL flashes, as main and fill. (More that two flashes with the Commander system stops making sense however). And as a remote triggering system, it is line of sight, which can have issues... Seems excess overhead for one flash, except that it does provide off-camera TTL operation. But for two TTL flashes, it individually meters and controls each one, and is truly something else again. Not for fixed studio shots, when you surely would want manual flash anyway (and a hand held flash meter, and more flashes than Commander can control). But for any fast setup of two TTL flashes, for shoot and go type of pictures, Commander TTL is simply awesome (if the trigger works). [/QUOTE]
