Great flash. Small enough to carry with almost everywhere. Has a bounce so you can get much better results than with built in flashes. Results are the same as my SB-600. Only drawback is the bounce only goes in one direction and you can't do a ceiling bounce in portrait orientation. The flash you have with you is always better than the one you left at home and this one goes almost everywhere I carry my D300. Maybe one day you will need more flash, but this will still be the one you use the most.
