Remote Flash Units
Remote flash unit setting
The standby function of the SB-700, SB-900, SB-800, SB-600 and •
SB-R200 is canceled when remote mode is set. Make sure that there
is sufficient battery power.
Set the zoom head position of the remote flash units wider than the •
image area, so that the subject will receive sufficient illumination
even when the angle of the flash head is off axis from the subject.
When the flash-to-subject distance is very short, set the zoom head
position wide enough to achieve sufficient light.
Setting up the remote flash units
In most cases, position the remote flash unit(s) closer to the subject •
than the camera, so that light from the master flash unit can reach
the light sensor window for wireless remote flash of the remote flash
unit(s). This is particularly important when holding a remote flash
unit in the hand.
