Nikon Digital Flashes
#5

Toad Wrote:Nope - not true.

All the Nikon speedlights are compatible with the D70 (and most other Nikon bodies newer than 1990). A D70 using a combination of SB-600 or SB-800 speedlights can make use of Nikon's Advanced Lighting functionality wherein the camera can automatically balance the output of multiple flashes at different room positions wirelessly without the photographer having to exposure compensate in any way. Earlier bodies cannot use this functionality.

I use a SB-800 with my F100 - and it works just fine - but an SB-23 would have worked as well (well - not as well - but it would have worked).

This is a huge difference from saying that only the SB-800 is compatible with the D70. All Nikon speedlights will work with the D70. Newer digital bodies can make use of this superb Advance Lighting functionality.

Hm... thanks for the insight Toad. I was basing my statements on this thread in rec.photo.digital - perhaps they're just talking about TTL functionality.
