Flash shooting with the Diffuser SW-12 and Flexible Arm Clip SW-C1
By attaching the provided Nikon Diffuser SW-12 over the flash head, you
can diffuse the SB-R200’s flash light even more, creating extremely soft
light with virtually no shadows.
Example C C-1
Dual-light flash shooting (with Diffuser
SW-12)
The Diffuser SW-12 is used to diffuse the
light from the flash and soften shadows in
order to enhance the detail of the cake,
allowing the rendering of more natural-
looking shadows that express the softness
and freshness of the cake as compared
with flash operation without using the
Diffuser SW-12.
Flash setup
• Camera: D70
• Lens: AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D
• Group A: SB-R200 (TTL)
• Group B: SB-R200 (TTL)
C-4 example in “Close-up Speedlight Photography
Examples” was taken under the same conditions
as was C-1. C-2 and C-5 were taken without using
the Diffuser SW-12. C-3 was taken using a single
built-in flash.
Example E E-1
Dual-light flash shooting (with Diffuser
SW-12)
Two SB-R200 units are used to illuminate
the small subjects from both sides to bring
out their delicate detail. Illumination from
one SB-R200 with the Diffuser attached
from the left creates a softened highlight
and renders vivid colors.
