Nikon SB-80DX questions
I have a Nikon SB-80DX for my D100. I'm confused about two things:
1. The SB-80DX literature says it has a "Built-In Wireless Flash". Does this mean I can hand hold it somehow away from the D100 and still have it flash? 2. Will my SC-17 cord (from my F5 days) work with the D100/SB-80DX combination? Many thanks! |

Hi Anonymous, The SB80DX has a built-in wireless flash *trigger* that will sense another flash (like the built-in flash on the D100) firing and trigger the SB80. It cannot be triggered wirelessly by just the camera. I have the SB80DX and a D100 and use it all the time with the SC-17 cord. Works just fine. Hope this helps, Dave |
