Basically, with the D you need one 360FGZ unit and with the DS
you need at least two.

The D's built-in flash supports wireless control of the
360FGZ. The DS will also allow wireless flash control, but you
need one 360FGZ mounted on the body to control a remote
360FGZ; its built-in flash does not support the control protocol.


I see. Didn't know that. How stupid. I was eyeing DS, but it's now off the
list.

I guess that wireless flash control is important to your work? For me, it's "nice feature, but never used it" kinda thing. So far, my flash needs have been fulfilled nicely by a couple of non-dedicated Sunpak 383 units and a few Lumiquest bounce diffusers, a Wein slave trigger.

One of these days I'll buy a couple of dedicated flash units and discover what I've been missing. :-)
