It's the tight shot with the 70 that's blown out.
FYI, have you seen and or read this?

I printed out the chart and keep it in my kit for reference, 'cause I
can never remember all this data for a minute.
Also keep a copy of the text below it in case the chart confuses me,
which it does, under pressure, which is when I have to take a flash
shot.

The basic site is a collection of photos of Pentax equipment. Don't
know where he gets some of them... ???

Both cat shots are from the same location. I probably moved the 18-70
to 50 to get them both in. The tight shot of Boo, is with the 77

Interesting. But I think the comparison of the cat shots is unfair.
You were
much closer to the cat with the Pentax, which in my experience
makes it
harder to get balanced flash.
Over all, however, I must agree that in this test and historically,
the
Nikon flash (and the firmware that control it) wins the race.

Using the K10D and 77ltd and D200 and 18-70, both from the same
point,
same settings.
Af 360 on K10D and sb800 on D200.
Huge difference in adding light to shadows,,as seen in the couch
shots, and the shots of Boo in direct sun.
K10D way overexposed in the high lights, D200 opens up the shadows,
with no blow outs.
The D200 is winning me over with the SB800.
