I was shooting an event today in a very quiet room and I had to use my SB-600... what a nightmare.
Everytime it pops, it has to recharge of course... so the high pitch nightmare begins. Is it a "feature" that Nikon thought would come in handy to know when it's fully charged or what?... cause it's oh so annoying. I wish my SB-600 would be quiet.
Am I the only one who's super annoyed of disturbing the silence in a room with this very irritating high pitch noise? :\ Anyone found a solution to this? |

Mine make a little noise but not enough to annoy anyone. The SB-600 doesn't use a 5th battery so that wouldn't be your problem.

| When i first got mine, i put in some normal duracell i had lying around, and it sounded aweful. When i charged up and put in my NiMH rechargeables, it went away. What type of battery are you using? |

| My flash has been like this since day 1. I've always been using Duracell Alcaline batteries... cjoconn22, you got me ordering a set of 4 NiMH batteries with a charger and it's on its way. Hopefully that'll solve the problem! thanks for the replies! I'll let you guys know if these NiMH batteries do the trick... |

| If it's a high pitched hum as the capacitors charge, it's not going to make a difference what batteries you have. Sorry. |
