The great news is the D70's new flash system is superb. The bad news is the ONLY flashes that work properly with all the D70's modes are the built-in or the new SB-800 or SB-600.

The SB-800 and SB-600 are as good as each other. The SB-600 costs $100 less and is a little smaller and has a tad less power, which is still more than enough. The SB-800 is usually what salespeople and Nikon will push on you because it sells for more money. It just has some features none of us will use (like repeating strobe) and can take longer to recycle and can run its batteries down faster and weighs more than the SB-600.
