Probably one of the Yonguno flashes. Their quality is great for the cost. Or another sb700 for $330. Look for refurbished or used sb700s. But the yongunos are cheap
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Only buy an slave flash if you need to use both flashes. Otherwise, I believe you can use the 700 as one independently.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm using the speedlight on my Nikon D5100 and im totally happy with it
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.A second flash is always a plus to just about any lighting situation. With the Nikon Flash system, you can actually adjust the flash output individually using commander mode. The remote slave triggers that are built in are very sensitive, so using your own channel will limit other sources from tripping your slave units
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I seldom find a need for an additional slave, since I use the D7000 body, which can act as a master on its own. With the SB700 I can usually get what I want using bounce flash or a good diffuser indoors. I'd try it by itself for a while, and see if you think you need an additional one or not. A used SB600 works pretty well as a slave. I happen to have one that I replaced with the SB700 and they work well together.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The SB-700 can be mounted onto the D3200 and operate as the built in flash. If wanting to trigger remote speedlights the SB-700 must be mounted in a commander mode to operate the remotes. To trigger the SB-700 and other remote speedlights, the SU-800 must be attached to the D3200.
