[QUOTE="hark, post: 829364, member: 13196"] I had the SB910 and the SB700 both of which had the option to adjust the output. No clue about the others. My SB910 needed to be sent in for repair. The cost was more than I wanted to pay but got the repair completed anyway. It wound up breaking again outside of the warranty period even though I had only used it for 2 events with a total of approximately 110 flash actuations.
