Recently purchased a Nikon N90S. Looking into a flash for camera. Toss-up; SB26 or SB28 or does it really matter? Would like to here comments.

Thanks

When I was still at the newspaper three years ago we bought N90s digital cameras. Bill Waugh, then photo editor at Associated Press in Dallas, recommended we get Vivitar 285 flashes because exposure was so critical with the digital cameras and he said the 285 manual flashes were a lot more consistant that the auto everything flashes like the SB25 etc. I do know several photogs. in the newspaper business who use the SB25 and we have several here at the magazine and they seem to work great though.
