[QUOTE="kluisi, post: 265466, member: 17548"] Im definitely aware that HSS is an advanced feature and that therevare more basic things that I'll have to learn first, but I don't want to buy equipment that matches what I know now (very little) then quickly out grow it because it didn't have a feature I would need down the road. Thanks everyone for the info on how long the rechargeables last in the SB-700. It sounds like the external power really isn't as necessary as I thought it might be. I was thinking I'd be burning through batteries left and right.
