[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 2480, member: 1061"] I'm curious to know who uses non-proprietary brand flashes with their Nikon cameras? I've had the privilege of working with a pro who swears by a Sunpak 383. The very popular Strobist.com recommends using a LumoPro LP160 for off-camera sync lighting. This particular flash has the power and features rivaling that of the Nikon SB900, yet costs only $160. Granted, you lose the full-auto capability with these cheaper manual flashes. But for something so serious as lighting, wouldn't you want full control over it anyway? I mean...isn't that why we're buying an external flash in the first place? For the price of one SB900, one could buy an entire budget lighting system. [/QUOTE]
