I bought a Di866 about 9 months ago,,mainly for off camera flash.. They are one hell of a flash..

The MkII has some nice touches like the metal hotshoe foot..

I have a couple of them and am thinking about replacing my three 580EXs with them.

Yeah, they are nice flashes. The upgrade is nice. But tough to sell a 400 dollar with the mkI being 250 dollars on ebay. That 150 bucks is almost enough to get a second flash to use as a slave. But once the MKI supplies run low. The MKII should get some sell better.
