PACKAGE • • • • •
Carrying case Flash unit Color Temperature Gels Diffuser Cap Flash Base
FLASH UNIT 1 • Complicated control panel. Hard to figure out without instruction manual or YouTube video. • Head rotates 180 degrees and tiles -7 to 90 degrees. • Has built-in wide diffuser cap and bounce card.
FLASH UNIT 2 • Is the successor of SB-900, which suffers from overheating – Unit refuses to work when overheated. • SB-910 has a slightly better heat management system. • Did not have any heat problems.
USAGE EXPERIENCE • Has tiny catches and sensors on the flash that changes settings automatically when you put on the diffuser cap/wide angle cap. • Tiny sensors wore out after a year. Had a lot of problems dealing with this flash. • Repairs are expensive, and not worth it.

Guide Number: 34 (35mm ISO 100) Recycle Time: 2.3 secs Weight: 420 grams Size: 78.5*145*113 mm Built-in wireless: None
SUMMARY THE GOOD • Decently powerful flash. • Good battery life. • Accurate TTL.
THE BAD • Way too overpriced. You can get 5 good 3rd party flashes for the price of one Nikon flash. • Weak construct. Breaks after 2 years of usage. • Bad value for money.
