3rd dead flash after only medium-load daily use.
Least reliable flash I've ever used.
I've been using this flash professionally, mainly for run-and-gun quick real estate photography. I shoot *max* 150 finished images in a day (average 50-100) for this work, spread out over a few properties per day and I rarely shoot much more frames than I use, and I'm using TTL for most images. So it's not like I'm shooting hundreds of full power pops at high speed.
And yet, I've just burned out my 3rd flash in 2 years. This last one didn't even make it a full 5 months! The previous one I sent in for repairs (good thing I bought that insurance), and it was so fried they just gave me a refund instead of fixing it.
I'm so disappointed. Nikon, step up your game!

can't be repaired anymore
"I bought this unit almost six years ago and have been very happy with it, until it stopped synchronizing with my camera. Brought it to Henry's for repairs, but was informed it cannot be repaired anymore as ""parts are no longer available for this model.""
Real shame."

Make sure you carry a backup.
It's a very good flash as far as exposure is concerned. The iTTL is great and much improved from earlier versions. The bad part it's not the workhorse it should be for the price. I've had in in the shop at least 4 times for failure (typical of Nikon flashes). Capacitors blowing and just plain "dead". Not sure why this keeps happening. I'm not using a high voltage pack because the units recycle time is awesome with LIONs alone. I do not like the "creative lighting" OTC setup. You need line of sight for the flash to be triggered so they are basically useless for my type of Event work. Nikon dropped the ball because they should have integrated radio triggers into this line not infrared. I recommend getting this flash because when it works, it works well. HOWEVER if you are a PRO make sure you carry at least 1-2 backups (you should be doing that anyway). I sent my flash back in a couple of weeks ago and still haven't received it back yet so I'm giving the service dept 2 stars.

Great flash
"I've been using this flash for shooting portraits, weddings, you name it and it's always come through for me. Recently bought a second cause I liked the first one so much. Easy to use, dependable and powerful. Highly recommended."

Nice speedlight, but broke soon.
Purchased a refurbished SB-700 AF Speedlight. Nice speedlight. Used for just over 3 months and it broke. Battery light still showed charged, but it would not flash.

Great flash
"I've been doing photography for a few years now but had never taken the leap and bought a flash. Now that I have, I wish I had done so sooner. This allows more creative control and is really quite easy to use. Don't wait like I did, just go and get this flash."

The SB-700 Is Indestructable!
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 my 2nd flash in a year! The first flash was stolen along with ALL of my gear (contained in a bag). The LCD display looked like a little aquarium due to all of the water in it. I shook out what I could and let the flash sit by the window in the sun for a week.
Just yesterday, I figured I would give it one last try before having to buy a 3rd one. I inspected the flash for water and when there was no sign of moisture I popped the batteries in and WOW! It turned on and the flash is fully operational! I was able to photograph a marriage proposal last night and it didn't give me any issues.
I will highly recommend Nikon products to anyone I know! Your products prove to me over and over again that they are built to last and built for work. In a time where nothing lasts long you have created a line of products that stands the test of time and the abuse that photographers who work in the field put them through. I have always and will always use Nikon gear only! You have one happy customer here and I will always do what I can to bring you more business. Thanks for creating such an awesome line of kick butt products!
