Nikon Flash System

Posted by George Collazo On January - 11 - 2010

Maybe you are in the market for a new Nikon speedlight flash and you don’t know which you should pick. Besides Nikon’s R1-C1 ring flash used mainly in macro and micro photography, Nikon has available 3 nice and cool speed light flashes like the SB-800, SB-600 and the youngest sibling SB-400.
If you are using a Nikon DSLR with a built-in pop-up flash, there are good reasons to take your flash photography to a next level. First, the light from your pop-up flash can not be controlled in terms of light direction. Second, using the pop-up flash from your camera slow things down as well as it drains the battery on your camera faster. When you use an external flash unit, you can control the light and your pictures will look more pleasant to the eye and overall look really improve. The green text below represents what you should have in mind when choosing a  Nikon flash. Of course, there are other aspects to consider but everything boils down to your final personal use.
