This very elegant looking Nikon speedlight was introduced in late 2004 to replace the Nikon SB-80DX AF-TTL Speedlight(2002). The emergence and wide-acceptance of Nikon digital cameras has also resulted Nikon in maintaining dual models within their AF-flash models in order to suit individual requirement for users which can be both costly and inconvenient to up keep flash for their film-based and digital AF-SLRs. The introduction of both the Nikon SB-600 AF-TTL speedlight and this high performance SB-800 have streamlined the Nikon flash product line in order to tackle the incompatibility issues between the two format of film as well as digital family of AF-SLRs.

The Intelligent i-TTL system supports Advanced Wireless Lighting including 3 remote i-TTL speedlight groups controlled through the Master SB-800.
