An ode to Nikon's CLS

[c._f.]

<p>Nice Job Matt!!!</p>

<p>Just awesome, Matt.</p>

<p>Is that how you get that "Hero" icon next to your name? Seriously, you should have two of those. Or more.</p>

<p>Please, more of these How-To posts (GREAT diagram btw) or Odes, if that's what you call it back in your day.</p>

<p>Yep, CLS is amazing. I just bought 4 (this was a find!) pristine sb-800's at a local shop, boxed, for 200 bucks each. With a few gels and portable softboxes, the possibilities are endless.<br>

The preflash trigger from my D300 does sometimes cause some blinking...I would love to try the SU-800.</p>

<p>Damn, great find there, Jay. Don't forget to spend the $13 on an <strong><a href="http://www.laurphoto.com/prdr/nikon_sg-3ir">SG-3IR</a></strong>, which can make all the difference, without involving the SU-800. The SU-800 is still the best option, but since it's something like 20 times the price, it's worth giving that filter/blocker a try. Certainly cuts down on the blinking.</p>
