Great little speedlight February 21, 2010
B. Johnsen
I'll be brief since there's a million reviews on this already.
Pros:
Works flawlessly with Nikon's CLS, often in challenging environments (in full sun, around the corner, where you wouldn't expect a good reception).
Great control from in-camera menus.
Simple navigation and setup (after a few days of practice)
Cons:
Obviously not as powerful as 800 or 900. There have been some situations where it's just not enough power; I've had to double up my SB600s or just rent something better.
I burn through batteries pretty quickly, but that's just the nature of strobing. Eventually I wised up and bought rechargeables.
 profoundly disappointed February 16, 2010

I have a Nikon D80. I bought the Nikon SB600 to use as a secondary flash, as its description seems to imply. It does not work that way. DO NOT BUY THIS as a secondary flash unless you already have an SB800 or SB900. Sadly, I thought that Nikon products would work together better. I feel cheated and very disappointed by them and this product.
Good all around flash February 10, 2010

The flash works by simply putting it on top of the camera and it will do all the work. I particularly like the ability to bounce off ceilings and walls and still get proper exposure.
Great Nikon flash, excellent price/performance ratio February 9, 2010
Gregory Price (Dallas, TX)
I won't retread older reviews with this. This flash does a damn good job, considering it's half the price of the 900. It won't give you all the reach or the coverage of the 900, but it does about 75-80% of what the 900 can do. What's more, it is about a third smaller, so if you're taking a fill flash outdoors it'll fit in a coat or cargo short pocket without falling out.
Light quantity is very good, and wireless response is excellent - from almost any angle, it'll respond to my D80's flash signals where the 900 sometimes won't. I use this both for work and for fun, and I'm not disappointed with it.
The only quibble I have is the lack of support for gels, but I know a lot of folks do DIY gels, so this is a minor issue. I would highly recommend this flash for any prosumer application.
All the flash I will need February 9, 2010

I love this flash. I have a D300 so I have been using the built in flash but I bought this flash for more power and to use the built in Commander functionality of the D300 to fire this flash remotely for more flexibility and power. I plan on doing more painting with light and Macro photography so getting the flash off the camera is one of my ways to do so. You will need to buy a book or something to learn all about the power of this system. Plan for it and use it.
