What sort of use are you looking at?

Not that it matters for most, but i just found out that Quantum Turbo C only has cables available to connect with SB800 and not SB600.
I think other brands may be the same too.

Get the SB800, I got mine from TCW a few weeks ago, with surprising good results. I tried the flash on the spot with the D70 lense kit, and the subject matter was just 2 feet away...WOW!!!...really impressed with the results.

Furthermore it comes together with a diffuser dome, flash stand (for multiple flash exposure), 2 gelatin filters and also a spare battery holder (i.e. instead of the normal 4 batteries, you will be using 5 batteries).

Give it a try, you will love it. And it is compatible with other nikon bodies, I have tried it on my F5 and F4 and D2H (not mine : ( unfortunately...arghhhh!!). Save up and get the SB800

Yes, SB800 best suit D70!

 

[geoyip]

Better still, get a few than u can use CLS

Slight OT: You would actually loss the high speed sync function on Nikon film bodies if you use the SB-800, but this is a minor point.

I got mine for 600. You will get the flash , the fifth battery compartment, 2 gelatin filters (in a cute little white box), diffusion dome, one flash stand/holder (you can attach 3 flash unit to this little bugger!!) , flash bag (enough to hold all the above items) i.e. the standard package for SB800.

BTW...check out the D2H on display.....drroooolllll,.....drrroooollllll

slight OT - nikor_d...GO GO GO GO GO...and BUY BUY BUY... er...er...only the SB800 will ya.... if you do get the D2H....he he he.. we can go out more often... he he he

Not much actually...can;t really remember the actual loss in the high speed sync function :dunno: . but I think more the sufficient for your everyday photography... still have the SB28 for the F5 and F4..
