First Impressions: Nikon SB-28DX Speedlight

I was in the market for a speedlight for my N80, but it’s not as simple as just ordering the current model. Film bodies require D-TTL, the original through-the-lens flash technology released in the mid 8o’s, and with the discontinuation of the SB-600, Nikon no longer supports D-TTL.

Nikon Retires the SB-600

Isn’t retire so much nicer than “discontinue”? Still, no matter how you call it, the SB-600 is taking it’s place in history as one of Nikon’s all-time great speedlights.
