I'm new to photography and want to surprise my wife with a flash. I've read that the sb50dx is good, but will it work well with the N60? If not, which flash is better for around $200? I'm think she wants remote flash capability.

You may want to look at a used SB-24, 25 or 26. The 26 seems to be close to the Holy Grail because of it's slave capabilities but they can be hard to find. Personally I picked up a second-hand SB-24 for almost exactly the price you mention (give or take some exchange rate factors) and have been very happy with it on my F80.

If you want remote flash, I think the SB50dx is your only option in that price range. I am very happy with mine. Any other flash requires the purchase of an SU-4 for around $100 US.
