http://www.lightstalkers.org/d40_w__sb600 An entire Lightstalkers thread via RSS/XML. en-us My apologies in advance, since this may sound rather silly. Recently, I have been using an SB600 with a D40 quite often. I worry that the small size of the body won't be able to properly support the flash, and will eventually crack or break the plastic. I am just wondering if anyone out there is doing the same thing, and what are your experience? Cheers!

It can get awkward when you are going around a lot, or in situations when you need the other hand (e.g. work on a zoom lens).
