This flash has more features than most people will use. It is one of Nikon's top end flashes, and as such is very powerful and versatile. I have used it as a camera-mounted and remote for film and digital. One of the best features I've liked is the flash-fired remote capabilities. If you have a camera with a weak flash, you can add this to fill the foreground, background, or anywhere in between. Of course the flash really shines in a complex professional setup linked to high-end cameras, but you can also fire it from the flash on your camera, regardless of price or brand. This flash works fine with digital and film SLRs. It's a Nikon, so you know it will perform for many years.
