joseph_smith3 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 An alternative is to buy a used SD-8, send it to Nikon and they will modify the plug so it becomes an SD-8A. Cost about $39.00 Joe Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_williams14 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 What is the difference between an SD-8 and an SD-8A?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliot1 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 If you have the sb-800, you need the 'A' although there may be an adapter available for the older version. You can contact Nikon tech support to find out if your flash is compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph_smith3 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 The difference is the plug that fits into the flash unit. The 8A has the worldwide plug design. The SD had the US. When Nikon made the decision to go with one plug for the world, they agreed to modify the US plugs on the SD's. I do not have any pictures to show the differences. I just know that the plug on the SD will not fit into the SB-800. Joe Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sublimeimages Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 The SD-8 is squarish and the SD-8A is roundish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
