Perfect companion to my Nikon D750. I already have a Nikon SB-600 flash and only use it off the camera in remote mode, usually bouncing it into a cheap umbrella. always works great and wanted another, plus an upgrade. Right off the bat this 700 is easier to set up as a remote then the 600 with just the turn of a switch (the 600 is a bit complicated to set up) Recycling times are faster then the 600. Like the 600, this works flawlessly as a remote with the camera set to command mode. There is no reason to go with an off-brand because these Nikon flashes are powerful and work in perfect harmony with my Nikon camera. exposures are spot-on. So perfect and easy to use you'll want 2 or 3.

I know that it is so easy to try and save money and buy one of those cheaper off brand flashes. I know, because I did it. I figured a flash is a flash, it's just light! But there is a big difference, especially once you start getting serious with your photography. I currently use a D810, and was using some off brand flash with it. It worked but my images weren't perfect. I finally broke down and bought a real flash, one that's compatible with my Nikon D810. I bought the SB-700. And I have to tell you, that I kick myself in the a$$ for not buying this thing sooner. Not only is it perfectly compatible with my Nikon camera, but it is very precise! My images are so much better, the exposures are perfect. If you spent the money on a high end Nikon camera, don't cheap out on the flash!

I had been using some cheap (made in china) flash mount on my camera for awhile, but it literally fell apart into pieces. Then I decided the next flash had to have some great build quality. The Nikon SB-700 was built solid and had a metal shoe mount. My friend was showing me all of its features and I was impressed right away. You could fully tilt/swivel the flash to your liking, it had a built in diffuser, and bounce card. The menu system was simple, pretty self explanatory on the buttons as well. When it came down to the performance I needed, it was great at lighting up rooms or giving me something to intensify my subjects whether I'm using a telephoto or wide angle lens. It was tons of fun using it as a wireless slave. The level of creativity in my photos had literally opened up by leaps and bounds. I would highly recommend this flash. Possibly a few of them even. My only complaint would be that it weighs a ton when mounted on the camera. Get a tripod to keep your composition steady.Read full review
The SB-700 a very powerful, highly versatile, full featured, well construnted, affordable Nikon dedicated CLA compatible speed light. I don't think I left anything out...oh, wait, I love 'em...now have two!

I am relatively new to photography and was using a cheaper flash unit. I thought I was doing well with it until I bought this one. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!!!! You can never go cheap on these kind of things. This flash yields much better control of the amount of light every time. Plus the colors come out much better than the cheaper flashes on the market. I highly recommend this product.
