[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 276159, member: 14443"] I have to agree. if you can get the SB700. its still quite expensive and if not, the a used Sb800 is just as great. its EXACTLY the same size as a an SB700, much more powerful (on par more or less with the Sb900 and more powerful than the 910), has a battery port as well. people forget that before the SB900/910 came out, it was the flagship model. it has everything youll need and is VERY relevant even today. truthfully, with the high iso the D600/610 do, a really powerful flash is less relevant today. I buy new so it would be the Sb700 for me. it just recycles so fast and the power is just fine. A nice link of the flashes compared.
