FT: Nikon SB800 +$100 for Your SB900 (Houston Only)

[ElanR]

I have an excellent condition SB800 with every original accessory, box and instructions. It's lightly used, almost exclusively indoors. Looking to trade for a similar condition SB900, with me adding $100. Please reply here or use PM to contact.

Great opportunity for somebody who wants to get back to the perfectly sized 800. I traded back to an 800...still don't regret it. :)

I was thinking that too, especially after all the complaints I've read. My interest in the SB900 is the extra long zoom capability. I don't use flash for numerous repeated shots, so the recycling speed or the timeout issues don't concern me.

Well, I didn't see the benefit of the long throw too much...too much red eye for people stuff...and flash is too one directional. But really, I was annoyed by it's size and weight throwing around the arm on my flash bracket too much that I got rid of it really quick.

Bump.

Final bump.

FWIW I have one of each and like the SB-900. I've had no problems with it and don't find it too heavy or big for that matter. Good luck finding one.
