Nikon Speedlite Sb800 Price

[gapvic]

Can anyone let me know if $300 for a second hand SB800 in good condition is a fair price? Thanks!

Seems ok. You can get the 700 for $448 http://camerapro.net.au/nikon-sb700-speedlight-australian-stock-p-3061.html

And the spanky new 910 (which I have) for $635 http://camerapro.net.au/nikon-sb910-speedlight-australian-stock-stock-p-4846.html

Thanks Huga... I'm now a bit confused about what to do. The reviews I've read rave about the 800 and say it's better than the 900 (for a few reasons, one of which it is lighter, which will be better on my D7000).

Strange. I don't find it heavy at all.

But, I do know that the earlier models had an overheating problem (therefore slowing down shooting), but it has been corrected in the SB910.

I think I've said before that I had the 600 for around two years without a drama, it wasn't until I starting shooting more weddings that I needed something more powerful.
