This is a comprehensive video on Nikon's flashguns, from pro grade SB-910 to consumer SB-500 and everything in between.
In this video we will cover:
SB-500, SB-600, SB-700, SB-800, SB900, SB910 and go into details about whether to buy them or not, which is the best value and the pros and cons of each choice.
Nikon's creative lighting system is also covered in detail, so you can get a better idea of whether a remote enabled flash with master mode is right for you, or whether you just need one with commander mode.
You can buy the SB 500 here: amzn.to/2UjH811
The SB700 here: amzn.to/2WqqeRd
And the rest you'll find on Ebay.

A greater presenter, facts-on, authentic...no airs!

Great presentation. I go back to flashbulbs in the 1950s (several types, including #22) and the very early strobes, of which I eventually owned 4, including a professional model. I now operate 3 Nikon SLRs (FX and DX) with a variety of lenses and own an SB 700. Based on your presentation, I will now add an SB 500 for “light duty”; I had been using a small Canon flash as a slave; specifically designed to be so.

Great work, that's a good value! I hope you enjoy it! It's a super capable flash.

great video..I picked up 2 sb800's on the advice of Ken Wheeler ( the Angry Photographer )..yes..the menu system takes a little time to learn, but what a flash ! the GN is actually higher than all the other ones pictured and so dependable..also made in Japan ! It will last forever..thanks !

Thanks Dan, could not agree more, it's a great flash, and still stands up today. I think in part I take my hat off to Nikon for keeping backwards compatibility with all the modern cameras, it's great that it works on everything from the D1 to Z50

Excellent review! Makes it a lot easier to decide what to buy used. I have already have a SB-800 - still struggling with the menu - and like to add another one. It likely will be an SB-800 or 900/10 depending on prices / availability for used gear.
@HamerReviews

I'd grab an SB-900 - menu is MUCH better

Nice video. I recently purchased 2 SB900s and a SD9 battery pack off eBay. All of them in perfect condition. Not one scratch! You’d swear they were brand new right off the assembly line! One SB900 had everything including the original packaging and had that “new” smell to it. To confirm, I did a Jared Polin sniff test on all of them and all of my purchases had “I’m a winner” smell. I also did a wind tunnel test on them and it turned out to be a tornado! For all 3 it was less than the cost of an SB5000!
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 3 года назад
A great choice and a fab combo! The Sb900 and SD9 is a mean combo! Be careful not to overheat them, with the SD9 and a decent set of NIMH batteries that’s a real possibility of shooting many photos in short succession! Enjoy them, and please consider subscribing to support my channel :)

ONE IMPORTANT tip, when adding a flash to the z6, the SB-800's (I own one), will NOT activate the FLASH control/ flash group menu settings that appear on the d700, d610 and others (how we set groups/channels/exp. comp. on the remote flashes); YOU NEED the SB-5000 to do this!! all you get is a basic point and shoot style camera flash option selections, ie:on (fill_in)/red-eye/rear sync, as well as the overall flash comp. menu, THE SB-5000 OR the wr-r11a/b (formerly the wr-r10) is what "arms" these menu settings- wireless in the wr-r11a/b 's case! so watch out, PS the sb5000 will work as an SU-4 mode with the d700 etc.( called "Direct remote" mode in the AWS menu selections) so if you need it to be backwards compatable, there is the work-around!!

Would U say the reach of the SB-900 range of 200 is much improved over our loved SB-800? I Keep my 800's as it still shoots TTL on older film the 900 will not. Other then that, it's brilliant
@AlistairBeckett
@AlistairBeckett 4 года назад
I enjoyed your video. It was well made and informative. I have an SB800 and D300 which works great in Commander mode. I’ve recently upgraded to a D4 which doesn’t do Commander. Should I buy the Nikon SU800 commander thingy or would it be cheaper buying another flash just to act as commander. If so which? I’m thinking another SB800 or maybe 900.
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 4 года назад
So the SU-800 is great but super expensive. I think you’d be better off buying another SB-800 and using that as the commander
@AlistairBeckett
@AlistairBeckett 4 года назад
Hamer Reviews - thanks. I also have an old SB28 (from my film days) that I have used with the Nikon TTL sync cable. The cable was super expensive and couldn’t justify keeping so sold. Now i use the SB28 in manual as a fill in / background light.
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 4 года назад
Alistair Beckett those old flashes do a great job of that kind of thing! Definitely worth keeping round as a ‘dumb’ slave flash. Also, the SB900 is also worth considering!

not quite, you also missed out the sb-r 200; the flash gun used in the R1-C1 ring flash kit, they are a neic`e unit, but they are still a cl-s compatable flashgun.
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 3 года назад
Yeah I decided to leave out the Macro ones to be honest. Could have done the SU800 too. It’s a fair comment 🙂
@andyvan5692
@andyvan5692 2 года назад
@@HamerReviews yes, and you also forgot the 'sync' cable sets (used to enable off camera flash, when used on D7000's and other 'beginner' level dslr's in the lineup, or for extending flashes, or adding a 'PC' port for non-professional models of cameras).
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 2 года назад
Yep, there’s a lot to flash, this was just more of a general review. To be fair I was convinced we’d never see another flash sync port on a mirrorless camera when I recorded this - the Z9 disproved me nicely 😉

which one is compatible with the F6?

Every single one of them - though controls are limited on the Sb500 and similar. I’d get an Sb800 or Sb910 personally

Godox = value for money
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 3 года назад
I’ve never been particularly impressed by their on camera flashes. I personally much prefer a used SB800 - much better reliability and better results.
@aaronbpinto
@aaronbpinto 3 года назад
I have the SB910 and the SB800. I use them both to shoot weddings.. the nikon flashes have never.... never... let me down. But.. I would rather shoot with the godox V1 and the AD200 pro paired with my Z6II.
@HamerReviews
@HamerReviews 3 года назад
I guess it’s personal preference, I’ve tried the V1, wasn’t really impressed. The V1 felt like it was trying to be a Profoto A1 but was a really cheap knockoff of it. As a company some of the products Godox make aren’t bad, but it definitely feels like most of what they do is ripped from other companies but not as well implemented. I wouldn’t trust them on a shoot where I only got one chance to get it right.
