Inexpensive Nikon flash?

13 years 2 months ago #27404 by iTravel
What is a good inexpensive Nikon flash? I have a SB700 right now and would like a couple other inexpensive flashes. I don't need any bells and whistles, just a manual flash.

What is out there that you recommend?

Thanks!

How are you going to use additional units?...If you are going to trigger them remotely (and not use them on the cameras hot shoe) then older Vivitar 283 & 285 units have plenty of power. Also, the older Nikon units ( SB 24/25/26) are good as well... I Have the SB 25 & also a Sunpak 433d that I use for additional lighting

"Inexpensive Nikon"
The ultimate photographic oxymoron...

Buying second-hand might get the job done, but at the expense of some of the latest models' capabilities...

I bought all but one of my SB900 flashes on 'e-place' - lots of guys buy them new and then realise they barely use them and hurriedly off-load them before the wife finds out how much they cost in the first place...


(and before the feministas all get uppity - female photographers are far more sensible and less prone to 'shiny-kit syndrome' in the first place...) :whistle:
