Hi all,
I am using a D90 and I am planning to get a flash.
May i know if there's a disadvantage of using other brand Flash (Non-Nikon Flash)?
I tried googling it, but cannot seem to find the answer.
Thanks beforehand
You might want to try Nissin Di 866 Pro or Di622 for Nikon. Be careful in buying an appropriate flash for your D90 as using a wrong flash can damage the camera circuitry.
Thanks for the reply.
Wrong flash as in not compatible? If not, care to elaborate more?
The hotshoe mount is a universal design ie the dimension is similar no matter which camera brand you buy.

I do not recommend using 3rd party flash. Usually they are not as reliable compared to camera manufacture and for D90 you should get a Sb600 or above to make use of CLS.
rarely see sb400 in the market any longer, but if u found it..start thanking your lucky starsNo offence to third-party flash vendors, but I'd always stick to original flash, unless it's a simple flash-triggered slave flash.
For Nikon, there's the low-priced SB400 if you're on a budget and need only basic features.
How come 3rd party flash no good meh? I got a Mecablitz 58 AF-1 and it has proven to be much better than Nikon SB900.
There's no disadvantage at all. You must know what you want. Read the specs and see what it cannot do. If the cons is less than the pros and the budget fits you, then buy it. I have friends who have D90 and they never had problems with 3rd party flash like the Nissin.
