Hi guys I hope someone can help me, I just bought a sb-28 flash, and when I choose the manual mode, it asks me to set up everything, ISO, ZOOM, APERTURE, so my question is how iso will affect here?? i turn iso 100 or 400 and same results ofr each setup.....I dont remember my 580ex having this option, actually I only switch the power and the zoom when using manual mode....
Note, im using this sb28 as OFFcamera flash...
thanks!

I don't know much about that flash but you shouldn't have to set anything other than the power level if you are using it in manual mode. I guess if you set the ISO and aperture, it will tell you the approx flash shooting distance.
Here is a link that may help: http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/NikonF5/SB28Manual/index3.htm#A

Yep, the ISO and such are just used for the distance scale, they won't affect your flash output, and can be ignored (I never bother with it on my SB-25 and 26). If you put it in auto mode, though, it'll use them to calculate exposure.
