Softening the shadows cast on the wall by the master flash unit

or lightening the background

Set the SB-30’s Mode selector dial to Wireless slave

flash (M), and the Speedlight will fire at M1/1 output,

allowing you to eliminate shadows or lighten the

background for creating more natural-looking

pictures.

• The maximum shooting distance of the master

Speedlight’s light sensor is approx. 40m (131 ft.).

Taking flash pictures

1 Use the SB-30 as the slave flash unit and set it to

the Wireless slave flash (M) mode.

2 Determine the correct exposure using the flash-to-

subject distance and aperture set on the camera or

lens, then shoot.

• Refer to “Manual flash mode” on page 18.

• To eliminate shadows such as those cast on the

wall, use a lens aperture that makes the

illumination on the wall overexposed by the

equivalent of at least +2 stops.
