I am trying to decide whether it is worth paying the extra for the SB900 or the SB600. It's mainly because I am having to do some photos at my sister's wedding, and dont have any flash. I am not very technical and really want something that is easy to learn. when I read the write ups it gets very technical. I dont want to let her down, but I was the only choice! I have 6 weeks to get into it. |I picked either of those because of the ITTL and the remote wireless idea, which I will have to learn pretty rapidly. any suggestions or help. I have been trying to get hold of the SB800 but it's gone into extinction.
 
I've never shot any weddings but I can tell you that the Nikon CLS (Creative Lighting System) is superb and not too difficult to learn. Either of the SB600, SB800 or SB900 will allow you to use wireless off camera flash using the built in flash on the D80 as a commander. I used to have a D80 and have both the SB600 and SB800 and I've always found it a brilliant system.

thank you, this is really really helpful. I have made my mind up to go with the sB600 cost wise being the issue.

thanks again.
