Wow,... my Family all chipped in together and purchased me a SB-900 for Christmas and I am so excited.
I've been wanting a flash for a while now, but to get the Flagship flash is really awesome. I have allready been impressed with the indoor capabilities of this flash eventhough I am a total newbie to photography.

Here are a couple of shots of my riding buddy and me taken at the MX track last weekend.

Any overheating problems? Some folks who use the flash for weddings (or any shoots where they're popping off a lot of
shots in a row) say the flashes are shutting down for as long as 15 minutes due to overheat.

I seem to have misplaced my SB800 on our last road trip and unless it turns up I'm probably gonna have to
replace it but have some concerns after reading some user evals at Adorama..........
