| Can someone refer me how to a website that will help me understand all of the bells and whistles for my flash. I have no idea about zoom and mode on my flash. |

Do you have the instruction manual? That, plus some practice, is a great place to start.
If you aren't sure when and how to use the Guide Numbers, you are probably better off leaving it in automatic mode. |

Well you could read the manual but I'm a guy so I cannot recommend that cause I rarely do....
Try strobist.blogspot.com; have been doing a lot of stuff there recently and it's like someone ripping open you eyes about flashes and technique.

Can't think of a site, but if the flash is mounted on the camera or a TTL cord the zoom will take care of itself. I'd recommend reading the maunal. It's not that bad.

| I lost the manual and I was unable to download it from the Nikon site, I thought for sure they would have it posted. |

| Try the Magic Lantern Guides: Nikon AF Speedlight Flash System: Master the Creative Lighting System . It more than covers all the basic info that you'll need for the SB-600 and more. |

I have a SB-600 (and a SB-800)... I use PocketWizards to control and fire my flashes (which are controlled manually). Which can be a pain, but I get exactly what i want when it is adjusted correctly! I would recommend playing with the CLS or getting some eBay remote triggers to play with that SB-600... my only suggestion is.... get it off your camera! :)
