For those of you using Nikon flashes... Does anyone use the SB-500 or SB-700? Nikon has the SB-500 in their refurb store for under $200 and I'd like a first hand account. I'm using a D750 and my SB-400 has gone missing. Is it much better to get the SB-700 or other instead? As far as I can tell the main missing features of the SB-500 are less flash coverage at wide angle, no AF illuminator and no gel covers.

issue got solved

Hi all, I'm earnestly looking for some advice here, my apologies if you get a lot of this type of question. I'm going on a trip at the end of the Summer and really don't want to miss out on the opportunity to do some photography. I have an old compact digital camera (Fujifilm Finepix S1500) that I purchased almost ten years ago and never really used. I don't think it's a terrible piece of kit but I'm a total beginner and have no real way to judge the quality of this thing myself. My budget doesn't really allow me to upgrade currently. I've spent some time watching videos around basic camera settings and I intend to use my free weekends through summer to get used to using the camera. However, my question for the sub is do I need to upgrade? Will it be worth learning basics on photography using a basic piece of kit like I have? Any advice you have about learning would be massively helpful too - should I take a class or are the resources available on YouTube/online really worthwhile? Thank you so much for your help, I'm hoping for a few words of advice to point me in the right direction as I feel kind of stuck at the moment.
