Comment: |
Essentially
an SB-80DX with a bunch of new tricks specifically oriented towards
the D2h. Two or three of these flashes with the new D2h body make
for a very versatile (and wireless) TTL system. |

Don't Just Read
the Web Site, Get the Book!
The above
information was excerpted from the in-depth information in the upcoming
Nikon Flash Guide, 2nd Edition (the first edition, currently available,
does not include specific SB-800 info). Besides flash specifications,
you'll find a full set of operating instructions for each flash in the
book. Plus, most cameras from the Nikon F3 forward are covered in the
detailed section on interactions and capabilities in the back of the book.
That's all in addition to the clearest description of how the Nikon flash
system works that opens the book. Click on the cover
in the right column to order your copy from amazon.com!
