Hi all.. im curious if there is any third party "commander" smaller then the original ones.
Saw it and it was kinda huge for just a infra-red head on top.. Anybody got any idea if there is a third party ones which is smaller or should i just go for SB900???:think:
 

are you talking about the SU-800?

i'm not so sure but i don't think there are other alternatives for infra-red commanders...i would recommend the sb-800/900.:)
 

can try pocket wizard or similar radio controlled/ infra red controlled controllers. Check on ebay or amazon.

if you are looking for Nikon CLS enable commander for your D5000..

you can only use SB800, SB900, SU800 or a Metz 58 AF-1N

Nikon wireless Speedlight Commander SU-800
 

they're about the same size, really. I would consider the size difference to be negligible.
 

Nissin also claims to have CLS commander ability with their Di866 top-of-the-range flash unit.
I think it should work fine, judging from the reviews so far.
I'm waiting till I really need an extra flash, before I splash out on the Nissin.
