Does anybody know the history of the nikon flashes

I have a SB28 for SLR nikons and was looking for a SB28dx, i just learnt that it still doesn't work in all modes with my D200

So swapped to look at a SB50 or 80 any idea what one came first?

I just read the 50 and 80 dont work with the D200 so back to drawing board!

You need an SB-400, 600, or 800 if you want iTTL on your D200.

i-TTL is FAR SUPERIOR to the lousy D-TTL in previous nikon flashes. Not only beucase you can use them wirelessly, but the flash exposure is incredibly consistent, unlike D-TTL.

I caved in and ordered a SB600

I was trying to get a UK one but ended up with am alleged UK supplier of then, I've given it a punt to see what happens so I'll keep you posted!
