Main features and functions of the SB-600
•The SB-600 is a high-performance Speedlight with a guide number of 30/98
(ISO 100, m/ft.) or 42/138 (ISO 200, m/ft.) (at the 35mm zoom-head position,
20°C/68°F.) According to the camera and lens combination used with the
SB-600, you can perform various types of TTL auto flash (p. 33) and Manual
flash operations (p. 34).
•A power zoom function automatically adjusts the zoom-head position to
match the lens focal length (with the exception of some camera/lens
combinations) (p. 40). When the built-in wide-flash adapter is used, the
zoom-head position is automatically set to match a 14mm lens (p. 41).
• The flash head can be tilted from 0° to 90° and rotated horizontally 180° to
the left and 90° to the right, enabling bounce flash (p. 72) or close-up flash
photography (p. 75).
•In wireless multiple flash photography, the SB-600 can be used as a wireless
remote flash unit when the SB-600 is used with cameras compatible with the
Nikon Creative Lighting System (p. 5).
• When using bounce flash or taking close-ups with flash, you can use the
built-in wide-flash adapter to create soft, diffused lighting with virtually no
shadows, while maintaining balanced lighting for the main subject and the
background (pp. 72, 75).
• Custom settings are provided to set values, or activate or cancel functions
that are unnecessary to set each time (p. 53).
