Nikon SB-28 Speedlight – Professional TTL Flash
The Nikon SB-28 Speedlight is a high-performance electronic flash that was the flagship model of the Nikon Speedlight line during the transition to the high-speed autofocus era. It offers an impressive guide number and sophisticated TTL (Through-The-Lens) flash control. Designed for professional use, it features a rugged build, a fast recycle time, and an intuitive LCD interface. Its versatile zoom head and built-in wide-angle diffuser make it a powerful tool for controlling light in both studio environments and on-the-go assignments.

Expert Advice The SB-28 is a "secret weapon" for both film and digital photographers. For film users, it provides perfect TTL exposure on cameras like the Nikon F5, F100, and F90x. For digital photographers, while it does not support modern i-TTL, it is highly valued for its excellent "Auto Aperture" (A) mode and Manual (M) mode. It is particularly popular among strobists for use with wireless triggers due to its reliability and fine-tuned power control. Always use high-quality NiMH rechargeable batteries for the fastest recycle times.
