    Yay, got a new speedlight for my d70 thanks to JL889 :)

    Took some demo photos with it last night. Keep in mind that I have zero experience with speedlights.

    The following were taken outside around 11-12 (it was dark)

    snag a Sto-Fen Omni Bounce for your Nikon SB-600. You will LOVE it and it will help diffuse the light when you can't do wall or ceiling bounce or don't want the colors to pull. It's cheap too.

    I'm glad you got the sb-600. You wanna go shoot around atlanta some time?

    yep, you can pick up the ebay wireless trigger and receiver for like 30$ thats what I was using at firs to fire my Sb-800 off camera at first. May be going back to using them so I can get the 800 off the top of the camera.

    Yeah I just found out about the remote IR built in to my D80...haven't had a chance to try it with my SB600 but it's exciting. I' still trying to figure it out..

    take 8 sb-600's, point at 25 degree angle towards center, flash with a second delay and it looks amazing. I used a 1.8 f10 and it was like iron man:naughty:
