i have use both... SB 600 cannot be use as wireless trigger using D40/D40x/D60 if i'm not mistaken.. but Nissin Di622 can.. Di622 have bigger head compare sb600.. cheaper ( RM 430 vs Rm 790) but personallly Di 622 charging a little bit late compare SB600...
itu je la yg aku tau.. me myself didnt explore my flash very much..
my personal opinion is that if u got the money, just bought sb600 or sb900.. then bought di622 as 2nd/slave flash.. biggrin.gif

Di266? lol, not Di622 meh?  laugh.gif  laugh.gif
in terms of quality, SB-600 definitely wins
but Di622 flash power is definitely higher
it depends whether u nid the higher flash power of Di622 o not, if not get the SB-600

yes correct.. the head as big as 580ex... huhu.. di622 also got inbuilt diffuser+bounce card. sb600 only got wide diffuser.. my personal opinion is that, bought sb600 as ur main flash.. then bought di622 or much cheaper di 466 for backup or 2nd flash..i've use all three type...both nissin has been sold. cuma tinggal sb600 shj,.hehee

Alright, let me supplement:

1) SB 600 is less powerful if compared with Di622...the guide number tells it directly.

2) SB 600 has lots of function for you to play with, for eg FV Lock, aperture etc etc; while Di622 is very straight to the point, only TTL mode and custom power level...easy to use and user friendly.

3) SB 600 has a built in LCD for you to tune, view settings etc...Di622 no LCD, just buttons and LED indicator..

4) SB 600 supports RF wireless trigger (like Phottix Tetra) but does not have built in optical slave. Di622 has built in Optical slave but does not support RF wireless trigger...

5) recycling time of SB 600 is slightly faster at ~3.5 sec while Di622 is ~4...(fully charged Ni-Mh batt)

The above are all that i can think of currently...i might left out some...others pls supplement...
