General Nikon SB-28DX Speedlight Information
The SB-28DX works perfectly on every Nikon film camera ever made in every mode. Nikon puts the brains for the flash system into their cameras, so the SB-28DX will get all the features and best performance of which your film camera is capable.
Digital Cameras
The SB-28DX works perfectly with the D2X, D2H, D100, D1X, D1H, D1 and Fuji S1, S2 and S3. "DX," or digital, is the SB-28DX' last name. These all use Nikon's original d-TTL system. The d-TTL system sucks and rarely gave consistent results, so many photographers use the non-TTL A mode instead.
With the D2X, D2H, D100, D1X, D1H, D1 and Fuji S1, S2 and S3 everything works exactly as it should.
The newest D200 D70, D70s, D50,use a much improved system for flash control, i-TTL. The SB-28DX doesn't support this and doesn't really work with these cameras unless you follow the instructions below. You'll get better results with the latest SB-600 or SB-800 with these cameras.
The D2X, D2H, are unique in that they support both i-TTL and d-TTL. You'll get better exposure consistancy with the newest SB-600 or SB-800 flashes on a D2 serties, howver your SB-28DX or other DX series flash will work just fine and possibly give better results for people and pets.
People and Pets
For people and pets you may get better results with the SB-28DX' non-TTL A mode than the i-TTL mode of the newer flashes. The i-TTL system's many preflashes ensure many people's and pet's eyes will be closed in every shot!
To use the SB-28DX with the D200 D70, D70s, D50, D2X and D2H you have to use the non-TTL "A" mode, which probably works better than the d-TTL mode of earlier digital SLRs anyway.
How to Use the SB-28DX With the Newest Digital SLRs
Of course manual mode works fine. You don't need to read this; just set it to manual. The SB-28DX exposure distance calculator works if you set the ISO and f/stop on the flash.
The SB-28DX isn't completely compatible with the D200 D70, D70s, D50, D2X and D2H. It doesn't work in any TTL mode and it doesn't completely communicate with the camera as we've come to expect. You have to set the ISO and apertures manually. If you're willing to press a few buttons you can use it in A mode, which honestly may work even better than the newest flashes for photos of people and pets:

Looking after your camera
Use a Camera Bag
A camera bag does more than just protect the camera against scratches and dust: It keeps it safe from rain because many are waterproof on the outside.
Be Very Careful Around the LCD Screen and Camera Lens
Use only special equipment to clean your camera’s LCD screen and camera lens. Buy a special cleaning kit that includes liquid solutions, microfiber cloths and brushes that have been specially designed to clean your camera lens.
Never Leave Your Batteries in Your Camera for Too Long
Many camera batteries are now alkaline or lithium formats. If you keep your camera with the batteries inside of it in a moist area, then the batteries can get corrosive. So if you’re thinking about just putting your camera on the shelf for several months, do yourself a favor and remove them.
Turn Your Camera Off Prior to Doing Anything
Before you do anything to your camera, always keep in mind that it should be turned off first. No matter what it is—swapping lenses, changing memory cards or disconnecting or attaching cables—your camera should be turned off.
Cold and Wet Weather Can Wreak Havoc on Your Camera Body
Take your camera out only in a waterproof bag. If the weather’s unusually cold, just wrap your camera in a plastic bag that has silica desiccant packets for the reduction of moisture. It’s also a smart idea to have a soft towel with you to wipe off any moisture, just in case it should get on your camera.
Good Memory Card Care Is Good Camera Care
Only transport your memory cards inside of a protective caseMake sure the memory cards stay dust-free at all times. When removing memory cards, make sure you do so indoors or in non-dusty situations.
Make sure that you keep memory cards only in cool places. Never keep them in places where they may heat up, like dashboards or glove compartments.
Never place your memory cards close to magnetic sources. Examples of magnetic sources are things such as audio speakers, TV monitors and actual magnets.
Use a Filter to Protect Your Camera Lens
The lens of your camera is naturally fragile. As such, it’s susceptible to scratches, cracks, dents…you name it. A UV filter will not only will you give your lens a fighting chance, but you’ll also enhance the quality of your pictures.
Condensation Can Be Controlled
Condensation normally happens when you move your camera between different temperatures.
Allow your camera a chance to naturally get used to the hotter environment. Don’t place it inside a closed plastic bag when transporting it between different temperatures! Just let the camera sit in the humid temperature for a while, until condensation disappears.
If this still doesn’t get rid of all of it, you can utilize a soft cloth to wipe away any remaining moisture and marks left behind from the condensation.
