Best on camera flash for d750?

7 years 6 months ago #497728 by Alexander M
I'm a new to the flash photography side of things. From what I know from friends on the Canon side of the fence, Canon's 600 EX RT is one of the best flashes you can get it you are a Canon user.  What is Nikon's equal that will work good with my D750?

There are any number of Nikon speedlights that will work well with your camera. Depends on what you want & your budget. Just don't go with the lower priced units like the SB 300 as it is underpowered & under featured. An SB 700 would be the minimum I'd go with in your case. Personally, I use a D7100 & have 2 of the older SB 600 units, which can only be found used anymore, but I got the 2nd one dirt cheap.. They won't control other Nikon speedlights, so if you intend on expanding your gear in the future, buy more than what you need now to avoid needless purchases in the future. My suggestion is either an SB 800 or SB 910. Kinda pricey, but can be found used for less. BTW, Nikon's speedlight are considered superior to Canon's offerings. That said, a lot depends on the user.

SB800 was a great flash, but you probably can only find one used. A new SB910 would be my pick....
Edit: I have a SB900 and SB600 and actually use the latter more often. Just a great flash and simple to set up....

Why so serious?
