Title: SOLD - Nikon R1C1 Macro flash & Commander: FOR SALE
Post by: ColinM on August 20, 2016, 18:48:00
I have the complete set, in original Nikon carry case and in very good condition.
As you may know, the kit contains a wide range of additional filters & adaptors to help you get the light quality you need

In addition to the Nikon supplied components, this kit also includes a set of rechargeable batteries for the 2 guns - very useful when you're out in the field or in the middle of a hectic product shoot.

I am based in the UK & happy to answer any questions.
This is for sale at £295 to anyone in the UK plus carriage depending if you want insured delivery etc


I loved using this setup for capturing wildlife on the move. It would also work well in the studio when you haven't got enough stands for all your equipment

And if you want to take it to the limit...

Thanks Rosko.
Having checked prices on eBay, I tried to make this competitive and also as a thanks to the other members of the NG forum who have helped me so much over the years.

Note that although NIkon has now moved to a more electronic messaging method for some of its flashes, for close up work I don't think that makes as much difference as when you're shooting in a large room etc. Thus the R1C1 system is as valid today as its ever been.

For anyone who doesn't know about the system, here's

Hi.
I've looked at these before but would like to know if these are compatable with later bodies. I'm looking at going full frame and depending on budget it could be a d700 or d600
Would this work with these?

You're welcome Ray.

And for anyone else reading this, I also have an SB800 flash available. I'll put details up on a separate posting.
