Here is a quick example of a very fast setup done with 3x SB-600's, and a SU-800 wireless commander on a D700 body using a 24-70mm FX Nikkor lens (setup in 5-7 minutes with stands and umbrellas purchased here on amazon, took 10 minutes worth of shots). Of course, i wanted 3x SB-900's, but that would be a swift $[...] invested into lights, and i didn't own the wireless commander at that point... something i desired for no front flash. i rented 3x SB-900's for a weekend and $[...] later, i did realize the SB-900 is very powerful offering greater coverage than the SB-600... but if you are on a budget, and have a close proximity you can shoot at combined with wider aperture settings, the SB-600's will be fine. if you need to close the aperture (F-8 through F-14 for example) at a low ISO (iso-100) and shoot in very low light conditions, you may want to invest in a more powerful speedlight like the SB-900. though, indoors so far these 3 SB-600's i purchased off of amazon have been a key addition to my setup offering great wireless value to my photographs. they can be used as a fill in nearly every situation, just be sure your using a later version wireless commander (su-800 or SB-800 and up) on your body, and you'll be good to go. come to think of it, if you have 1x SB-900 on your body and these lesser expensive SB-600 models used to fill on your left, right, and rear of the subject matter, you can have an amazing lighting setup for under a grand. some of my other friends have spent nearly 5k on strobes and power packs, and they have simply complained on shear cost of the setup, not to mention the additional insurance on the equipment which can be stolen or damaged in outdoor conditions.
