Excellent new speedlights. Real easy to use menu system now. I have 2 since 
my Sb800's are getting on the old side. There has been allot of talk about 
the SB900 overheating and shutting down. I've only had one overheat and 
shutdown once, that was after approx 300 flashes and I knew the batteries 
were done for.

Huge improvement on the AF focus light, the SB800 had problems with the 
D3(not sure if the D700 has those problems).

Nice lighting even when using the 200mm range.
