There's no point in considering anything other than the SB-800. It's simply the most capable and flexible flash available for any camera system today. And it's very reasonably priced (Cheapest of all the similar 1st party flashes). The SB-800 offers manual, Auto and Guide Number flash on all cameras, plus TTL and i-TTL with compatible Nikon bodies (All Nikons which are capable of TTL flash will do it with the SB-800, although the F3 does require the AS-17 adaptor). It also offers optical slave, TTL-following optical slave (works with any non-preflash TTL system) and Nikon's Advanced Wireless System with i-TTL/CLS capable cameras. Oh, also a standard PC-Sync port, external battery port, wired multiflash TTL port and an optional 5th battery holder for faster cycle times. It also ships with a diffusion dome and a set of colour correction filters. And did I mention it's cheaper than anybody else's similar flash?
