Nikon remote flash verus Canon's

[JakobPritchard]

Has anyone had experience using both Nikon and Canon's remote speedlite systems? I've been shooting with a couple sb800s and have been extremely happy with the units for remote TTL stuff. In fact, I'm so happy with it that it's made me re-consider switching to Canon gear, which I tend to prefer in terms of their digital bodies.

Anyone have experience using Canon's remote flash system... Is it up to par with the Nikon system?

Not to start some extended Nikon vs. Canon shouting match.... I really would like to hear about others experience with the speedlites though.

regards,

Jake

G'day Jacob,

I don't think many Nikon users would use the infirior Canon equipment. But I can't speak for anyone but myself so... NO.

I prefer the superior ergonomics of the Nikon machines.
The Nikon flash system has been approved extensively as being superior to Canon's, by many and most photogs.
I've read almost all the avaliable text on both systems and can't remember anyone offering Canon superiority in this regard.

Have a nice day.
Bill.
