[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 288195, member: 14443"] yes, yongnuo flashes are good. but nikon flashes are better. from experience with both, its worth to pay an extra $100 and even get a used SB800. thats the only thing from 3rd party grips and lenses that I feel are worth the extra money. but money talks and BS walks. its what you have in the pocket that counts. I bought yongnuo cause my wallet was thin. it didnt serve me well truthfully and after buying the SB700 I realized with flashes they have their target market. I should have saved more and went nikon. yongnuo flashes are worth exactly what you pay. youre not geting an sb700 for $100. or even an SB600. just be aware. some people expect to get a nikon quality speedlight for half price and it simply isnt the case. they can sell cheap but the components inside cant be of high quality for profit reasons. that being said, it will do [B]everything [/B]you as a newbie needs though and thats the bottom line. good luck :) [/QUOTE]
