Technical operation/Effective Speedlight placement
lUsing the built-in bounce card
m In bounce flash photography, use the SB-80DX’s built-in bounce card to
create a highlight in the subject’s eyes, making the eyes look more vibrant.
nAs shown in the illustrations below, pull out the wide-flash adapter. While holding the
bounce card, slide the wide-flash adapter back into place inside the flash head.
nTilt the flash head up 90° to use this function most effectively.
lShooting with the Nikon Diffusion Dome
m Use of the provided Nikon Diffusion Dome diffuses the light from the flash
much more than with normal bounce flash, allowing you to soften the light
from the flash and eliminate shadows. With the camera in the vertical position,
the Nikon Diffusion Dome provides the same effect.
nGood results are generally obtained when the flash head is tilted up 60°.
nUse of the built-in wide-flash adapter in conjunction with the the Nikon Diffusion Dome
results in much more diffused light (p. 72).
m Attach the Nikon Diffusion Dome
as shown in the illustration.
m The zoom-head position is
automatically set at 14mm.
