[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 809660, member: 48483"] I never had Godox speedlights, but when I had a D7000 I used Nikon SB-600 and SB-400 speedlights. The SB-600 had it's own AF assist light that projected red lines on a subject and it worked quite well. The SB-400 would use the camera body AF assist illuminator which is a white LED. That worked less-good and has a more limited range. It can be blocked by a large lens too. I am a little curious about the Godox and AF assist. Do they have their own red line illuminator like the better Nikon lights? I ask because Nikon is clearly getting out of the speedlight business and passing that aspect to the aftermarket world. My SB-600 won't last forever. [/QUOTE]
