Hi Guys,

I was about to buy a SB800 for my camera, and I found out that there are a lot of people selling this product, this give me a creep as I wonder wherther the flash is good or not. Any advise from the flloor.

First of all, is there a lot of SB800 sale in the buy & sell section???

Dun think so.

Anyway, this is a good flash. You won't go wrong getting this or the SB-600 cousin....

they sell it because they under utilise it.SB800 is the best nikon flash with latest tech and features (CLS)`. If not getting it, what else you want to get?

SB600 also a good choice if you dont use it often...

SB800 is fantastic for event coverage -- its a highly intelligent system. Some pple probably restrict themselves to outdoor daytime shooting, hence not using the flash to full potential.

Sell, is good. Cos it's good for me who wants to purchase a few more units

More people sell is better....when competition is high..the price will go down and I will grab one
