Does anyone know of a good flash that would work for weddings and would work on my nikon d40x and maybe one that i can use on both the d40x and on a nikon d200?

    If you shooting weddings, you shouldn’t be using a cheap, off brand product like SUN-PACK. Those products are aimed for the people who don’t need the best results- to be honest, You can get away with a Nikon SB-400, it’s better:

    If you have the money, get the SB-600– but at least get the SB-400

    I’d forget the SUN PACK—_—

    I agree w/ Nathan… stick with Nikon Speedlights.

    Take a look at the Nikon SB-600

    or the Nikon SB-800

    or the Nikon SB-900

    I disagree with the previous two posters. Although it is nice to build your rig around a specific brand, flashes like Sunpak, Vivitar, Sigma, Braun,etc have been around for years and are highly respected names in Photography. Although I do not own one, there for can not recommend a specific model, I would not hesitate to use one. These previous two posters are somewhat new to photography and there for not familiar with the brands.

    Nathan is as crazy as a bed bug. SunPak makes some very good flash units in their highest quality. I have one that equal anything that Metz will do. I want to think that it is a model 555, but I am not looking at it. anyway, they are not that expensive and you can find nice ones used.
