Yes, but not in TTL. Get the SB800 to use TTL on the F80.

I think it should be ok. IMO, the new flashes are supposed to be backward compatible with the older TTL bodies but not the other way round because the newer bodies incorporate new technology which the old flashes cannot accomodate.

Oops. I think I'm wrong then.

Well, TTL, i-TTL and D-TTL are all TTLs, just utilizing different technologies. the old film TTL does not use preflashes, i-TTL and D-TTL uses preflashes and i-TTL is a newer technology.

Sorry for the wrong info.
