USED Nikon SB-28

Picked this up to pair with my F100 and it’s flawless—the swivel head locks tight and the guide number is plenty for bounce shots. Clean glass, no corrosion, and the LCD reads perfectly. Feels like it was barely used, which is rare for a flash this age.

The recycle time is snappy for such an old unit, and the head tilts exactly where I need it for bounce shots. Came as pictured, a bit dusty but that’s expected with a used classic—it’s already earned its spot in my bag.

As a film shooter, this flash is an absolute workhorse — the guide number 36 is perfect for balancing fill light outdoors, and the used condition honestly looks better than I expected from the photos. The recycle time is snappy too, which is crucial when you're chasing candid moments.
