Nikon SB-600
Great strobe with a very solid feel. Flawless performance and great battery life that balances well on my D70s and D40x cameras. I also have an SB-800 and the two work perfectly together in Remote mode with the D70s internal flash as the master. I took a series of test shots and progressively changed the output to judge the degree of control available. The SB-600 is capable of 1/3 f-stop output control or better. I highly recommend this strobe and think it should be your first choice over the SB-800 or new (and even more expensive SB-900) unless you have the rare need to have group control over multiple flash units or if your camera's internal strobe cannot act as a remote master. Then the SB-800 is your best bet. Otherwise, save your money and use it to buy other gear.

Great Flash - Great Deal
I recently purchased the Nikon SB-600 to replace an older Nikon SB-80 flash. I did this because of the recent changes in Nikon cameras where my SB-80 would no longer sync up. I was very reticent to make the change as the SB-80 was such a great flash...and I really couldn't justify the cost of the SB-800 for may photography hobby. My son (pro photographer) convinced me that the SB-600 would give me everything I needed in an external flash..do decided to try it. He was absolutely right! The flash works very well with my Nikon D40/Nikon 18mm-200m VR setup! I don't feel I've lost any of the functions I had with the SB-80, save for not including the flash diffuser (about $13 to buy one) that I'll have to purchase (wonder why Nikon doesn't include it like they did for the SB-80??). If you need a very high-quality external flash unit with a ton of options/funcitons...I would highly recommend the Nikon SB-600, as the price vs. what you get in quality/functionality ratio is very good. What you gain in going up to SB-800 is negligable unless you need the all the pro-level off camera remote functionality. What you lose for a small price difference if you go down to SB-400 where you lose a lot of the features and shooting distance available in the SB-600 does not justify the "savings". The Nikon SB-600 offers perhaps the best value/functionality package in the marketplace.

great strobe
this is a great addition to any nikon dslr. the only thing better in portability is having more + a sb-800. get creative and use them off camera as well. i highly recommend have this flash as an addition to your gear.

Beware
Light works great and easy to use with my Nikon-D60 SLR camera but beware that not all cameras will trigger the light at a remote distance as some Nikon cameras are designed to do but mine is not.
