    can you use the sb600 as a slave with any other unit like the 800 or 900?
    thanks

    I would assume so Nikon users would know better.

    If you can slave Canon speedlights to each other the why not the Nikon speedlights.

    are you asking can you trigger the sb600 (the slave) with an 800/900 (master) flash? or the opposite way?

    It's called Commander Mode.

    You can use the Pop Up Flash as the command unit. You do not have to even have it lighting the subject as long as it gives the pre-flashes.

    Which Body are you using?

    d90 and 700.
    I just worked it out,
    commander mode etc.
    I'm using the 800 with a DIY ringflash box and the 600 off to light up the background.
    learning, but learning fast.
    thanks everyone.
