The Nikon SB-700 flash delivers consistent, natural-looking results with minimal effort. Its intuitive controls and reliable performance make it a joy to use. I love it!

Very capable for most lighting needs. Interface easy to navigate. Dials buttons and switches are easy to use and understand.

I highly recommend this flash for its excellent performance and its capacity does not heat up and supports rough work

We stopped using Nikon flashes years ago in favor of Godox which is also Flashpoint. Speedlights are way over priced and don't perform as well especially when it comes to battery life. Godox/Flashpoint are spot on with true iTTL and the same features as Nikons but at a much better price.

Works great, I primarily use this as a secondary flash to my SB-5000 when I want to pop a bit more light into a photo but have used it on camera for military homecomings in the evening.

Flash is great I just REALLY miss the option for an external battery option. Yes, it recycles quickly but there are times when the AA?s are not enough. It?s disappointing that we can?t add a quantum battery to the flash any more.

I'm on a Z 5 coming from film. In my film days I always needed a fill flash. Now on digital, I'm not so sure I need it. I think I'll have to give it a try for fill or very dark photos. I tested it on my dog at sync 200 and exposure is perfect. Like my title said, it comes complete and looks brand new. Even the case is spotless.

This product is so great and came with some unexpected bells and whistles. Well...I say unexpected...but I should clarify that is was unexpected for me, a first time purchaser of fancy new attachments for my camera.

I have been taking photographs for years, but have been afraid to use a speedlight. I read many reviews and watched some videos before choosing the Nikon SP-700. I have a Nikon D-7500 camera and thought it would be a good choice for me and my camera. I am very happy with my choice. It is easy to use and all the functions marked clearly on the flash. It took some time to set up my camera for off flash use but once I figured that out it was easy to operate. I would recommend the SP-700.

My trusty SB-600 died after 11 years of what would probably be called average use. I read the criticism in the review universe but went ahead and bought the SB-700. And, yes, the controls are too small and the output is not the same. The functioning, though, is right were you need it with perfect integration with my D7500. I hope it holds up as well as the SB-600. It gets only four stars because of the almost 80% increase in price.

The Nikon SB-700 flash unit worked perfectly right from the box. It is a replacement for an earlier Nikon Speedlight so I expected similar quality and performance but the SB-700 actually exceeded my expectations. The quality of the 'flash' (the metering) produced a better balanced output, resulting in perfect color and balance with the first shot and all that followed. I know that Nikon makes more expensive flash units but the SB-700 is working fine for me and certainly out performing my expectations. Therefore, I think the SB-700 is a great value for the money and you will not be disappointed.

I am a passionate amateur photographer. I do not suffer sub-standard equipment very long. While I can't afford the very best equipment, the equipment I buy had better be worth my hard earned money. I originally was going to buy an SB-600, but they were discontinued, so I bought the SB-700. After reviewing the specs, I found that the SB-700 actually has slightly less flash power than the SB-600, and some other minor differences, that would seem to make it a lesser flash for more money. I wasn'...

The SB-700 Is Indestructable!
By ARCCPhotos
I am a professional photographer in San Antonio, TX and I often use my SB-700 flash for off camera flash (OCF). About a week ago I was photographing a family next to a river and I had my flash mounted to an OCF rig and 24" x 24" softbox and sandbagged. A strong gust of wind blew the rig (despite the sandbag) into the river! I rushed over and I was too late... I fished the rig out of the water and immediately pulled the batteries. This flash was totally waterlogged. I was so upset.. This was ...
