Hi haring,

 

The higher-end flash units by Nikon (SB-800, SB-900) can be controlled using on-camera flash or even in-camera flash. Nikon calls this the Creative Lighting System (CLS). It is not radio-controlled, but communication is done within a pre-flash.

Unfortunately, I don't remember which flash units are capable of acting as the master on the camera. I believe it is SB-600 and upwards, but I might be wrong. The D90 I had a while ago had a built-in flash which could trigger my off-camera SB-800 just fine.

 

For a simple setup this might be sufficient. A radio-controlled setup has ist own advantages, of course.

Yeah...., I am looking for a radio controlled unit. Yunguo (I never remember how to spell it) has one which work swith Nikon and has a built in radio...I just found out recently.
