I really enjoy using the Nikon SB-900 Speedlight unit (see
Figure 12-13). It is very powerful and easy to use in the CLS
arrangement because it has external controls for setting
remote mode. It can also be used as a CLS commander when
needed.

The SB-800 Speedlight unit is similar in power to the SB-900
and has the ability to be a CLS commander too (see
Figure 12-14). The SB-800's controls are more difficult to
adjust than the SB-900's controls because the settings are
buried in menus. I've used these successfully for several
years. They are no longer in production, but preowned models
are available on various Internet sites. Unfortunately, they're
desired by so many people that the used price can often
exceed the cost of a new SB-900.
