This unit is the fullest featured strobe I've had for a camera. Powerful output will supply enough light for most enthusiasts and works nicely in combination with other flash units, even if they're not Nikon CLS compatible. I sync a 400WS studio monolight from the SB-800 as my camera does not have a PC Sync connector and this works seamlessly--even if I only want the monolight to fire. In true NIkon fashion, this flash will do everything for you or allow you to manually control everything down to 1/128th power. Also works very nicely with the Nikon SC-29 off camera cable which includes focusing lamps on the hot-shoe connector so that your camera can focus effectively in low light. I use the SC-29 to keep the flash off of the camera 99% of the time and it allows me to hold the SB-800 behind a diffusion screen with one hand while I shoot with the other--amazing effect for a small flash like this. Recharges quickly and uses power judiciously so that batteries last longer than in other flash units (through a combination of iTTL metering and zoom capability). You won't be disappointed with the SB-800.
