I know there's been a few through here so wondered if anyone had one they didn't use any more. Please PM/Post if you do.

hey chris i might have a connection if you come up with no luck, keep me posted

 

Thanks Micah, please let me know. There don't seem to be many SB600's out there even on ebay and I'm not sure I need an 800.

 

what kinda prices have u found so far?, im not sure if the 800 is worth the extra $ honestly, unless you have specific situations where u know u need THAT much flash

 

From what I've seen the big benefits of the 800 are that it is a little brighter and can control slave units. The brightness isn't a big deal to me nor is the control and, even if it was, the smart thing to do would seem to be to get a 600 now then an 800 later to control the 600 as a slave (although I doubt I'll get that far!).

The SB600 I have seen is around $200 new with batteries and charger or about $130-140 used.

Call these guys and speak with Eugene

Tell him Mitch Sent you. He will beat any deal!

 

ahhh ok that makes more sense, i thought the 600 would do that as well, explains the almost $100 difference then i guess

 

I have a SB800 I would sell for $250 shipped It is like new, In fact I have 2 that I would sell...
let me know

 

That's a good deal. They are over $300 from reputable online dealers. BTW, I would spend the extra money on the SB800. It's like power in your car, you don't always use it, but it is nice to know you have it if/when you need it!

 

Got the SB800, thanks Scott. Quick delivery, great condition, now I just need to learn how to use it!

 

nice choice, ill probably get the 800 as well soon

 

Hey Scott,
did you get my PM regarding the second SB800?
