I have also ordered a SB800.....never tried an external flash b4....not sure what's good for but I just buy the best I can afford.....maybe due to kiasu syndrom

after reading KenRockwell's review, i decide to get SB600 instead of 800.

"The SB-600 does all the things the SB-800 does that anyone really cares about and costs $110 less. You get a smaller, lighter flash with almost as much power and all the features you care about, like automatic wireless TTL remote control. Of course Nikon would prefer you buy the SB-800, so that's what you'll see promoted everywhere. Nikon doesn't go out of their way ensuring this is in stock, either."

"By comparison, the SB-600 has 2/3 stop less maximum power (rated GN 98' at ISO 100 compared to the SB-800's GN 125) and thus recycles faster and provides more flashes at it's lower maximum power: 2.5 seconds and 220 flashes (Ni-MH). The SB-800 by comparison takes 4 seconds to recycle at full power and only give about 150 flashes at that power. The SB-600 has a much clearer LCD compared to the fuzzy dot matrix of the more expensive SB-800."

so i guess the only major difference is the max power?

You need to take a lot of salt with the 2nd paragraph. Not a pinch, but a LOT.

Alan Photo at SLS quoted me $345 inclusive of GST for warranted set.

Thank you.
Maybe someone also think this way, that's why this quote has been INHERITED.
but this is my 1st or 2nd time use this....

Dear all,a set at TCW will be cheaper,don't really feel the need for warrenty.

The 1 thing i didn't regret is getting the SB600.You can really see the difference between in built and external.It's very worth it in my opinion.
