SB600 dropped

    I was attending an Off camera flash course last night when my Nikon SB600 was dropped. Now its making a strange clicking noise and it can’t find the correct focal length, then it gives up and the “Zoom” section which would normally read 24mm is blank and as a result it won’t fire.

    I rang Conns and they said that it could cost €200 to get fixed !!!!!!

    I am thinking of just taking it apart and seeing if I can fix it myself. Anyone ever have this problem or has anyone ever taken a flash apart and fixed it themselves ?

    Jeepers you would nearly by one for that :shock: You have nothing to lose by
    trying it yourself and you never know it may be something obvious.

    Just seeing this now, and would advise anyone opening up a flash themselves to think twice. The voltages involved are extremely high, and in electrocution territory. Same with going anywhere near the onboard flash in a camera by opening it up.
