Nikon SB-800 AF Speedlight for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras – Old Version

My wife wanted me to take a bunch of photos of her grandmother’s small antique objects – pieces of jade, little carvings on ivory, some vases, etc. I have never been happy with the D100′s built-in flash, and my local camera shop suggested the SB-800 over several other Nikon models (after I told them I would also use it for photographing pets and some indoor photography while sightseeing).
