Nikon Speedlight SB-400



What are people's thoughts on this Flash? It's within my budget, but Really i'd like a flash I can have positioned off camera. I'm not sure if it's possible to do that with this flash? Any other recommendations at around £80 or less.

you can do off camera stuff with any flash if you buy some cactus triggers.

If you're using wireless triggers you won't need the built in flash on. As far as I know the built in flash can't be used to trigger the SB400 anyway as the SB400 can't be used wirelessly as part of Nikon CLS (hence you'll need the triggers or hotshoe cord).

I don't think you can swivel the flash head on a SB400 other than in a vertical plane either which may be restricting depending on what you want to use it for.

get yourself some pocket wizards ( second hand)....best investment ever.

Will open up so many horizons for your photography.

Wireless radios for flash - mine work upto 1600ft.
 
I used to have a SB-400 on my D40 - cracking bit of kit considering the price!
