[QUOTE="mario21, post: 307565, member: 25223"] Hi guys, I just bought my first speedlight Nikon SB-700 for my Nikon D5100 (kit lens 18-105 mm VR). And I have inconsistent feelings... On one side I really like that flash but I'm little disappointed about the build quality. When I mount and lock the speedlight onto the camera, I can still little bit move with it. I mean, the lock is not too tight. Similar situation is with head of the flash. I can slightly move the head to left and right side against the body of flash. Is that normal? And second thing. When I set my lens to 18 mm and speedlight (in manual mode) to 85 mm, I get exactly the same picture as here: [URL]http://www.flickr.com/photos/fduche/6827846023/in/photostream/[/URL] Could anybody who owns this flash confirm it please? I don't now whether those issues are normal or whether I have a bad piece. But because some people already also noticed that, I'm affraid that it could be maybe a bad series? Thank you! [/QUOTE]
