The Nikon Creative Lighting System supports Advanced Wireless Lighting and its
numerous possibilities for up to four i-TTL Speedlight groups controlled via the
master SB-800 Speedlight. This capability significantly enhances the value of
Nikon’s D2H
Nikon’s Creative Lighting System also offers i-TTL flash control, an evolution of
the highly regarded D-TTL system. Enjoy new features such as Flash Value Lock

Advanced Wireless Lighting
Thanks to Nikon’s Creative Lighting
System, Advanced Wireless Lighting (same
as “wireless multiple flash”) is as easy to
use as an on-camera Speedlight, enabling
professionals and advanced amateurs alike
to freely test the seemingly limitless creative potential of the system. You can sepa-

Using the master unit’s LCD, you can set the flash mode

for each group (A, B and C) and the master unit (M).
Advanced Wireless Lighting Benefits
rate i-TTL Speedlights into four groups
(comprised of the master* and three
remote i-TTL Speedlight groups), for comprehensive control over scene lighting.
Independent flash mode settings (TTL,
Auto Aperture [Non-TTL Auto], Manual,
Repeating and Flash Cancel) and any-time
adjustment of flash output level compensation values for each group can be controlled from the master.
There is no limit to the number of
Speedlights contained in each group, giving
you virtually absolute control over background illumination.

Advanced Wireless Lighting procedure
(when TTL mode is selected for each Speedlight unit)
In Advanced Wireless Lighting, flash mode and other types
of information are transmitted to each remote unit in the
form of a series of low-level flashes from the master unit.
In TTL mode, the camera’s exposure metering sensor
detects Monitor Pre-flashes to determine each flash unit’s
flash output level.

AUTO FP High Speed Sync
This new mode offers ample fill-in flash
during shooting in bright conditions using
fast-aperture lenses, enabling effective blur
in the background. Once the mode is activated, high-speed flash synchronization in
the camera makes available shutter speeds
that are faster than the camera’s own flash
sync speed.
Flash Value Lock (FV Lock)
Flash Value represents the degree of flash
exposure for the subject. FV Lock lets you
maintain the desired flash exposure during
zooming or even when recomposing a shot,
allowing you to concentrate on the scene’s
lighting.
Autofocus Speedlight
Wide-Area AF-Assist Illuminator
Compared to the other Speedlights, the
SB-800 and SB-600 emit AF-Assist
Illumination over a much wider area during
autofocus operation. This gives you autofocus shooting capability in dim lighting even
when you change the focus area with a
compatible camera.
Flash Color Information Communication
Color accuracy in digital SLR flash photography is higher than ever thanks to Nikon’s
Creative Lighting System. In Auto White

the digital SLR camera transmits flash
color information to the camera. Voltage,

Color Filters
The SB-800 Speedlight ships with two filters developed
exclusively for digital cameras — one for incandescent
and the other for fluorescent lighting. The optional SJ-1
Color Filter Package, which contains 8 different colored
filters, is also available.
Without filter
Taking flash pictures under incandescent light with the white balance set to “Flash” results in an orange-tinted background (left).
For natural color throughout the image, use the incandescent filter
and set white balance to “Incandescent” (right).

85mm. The built-in wide flash adapter increases the angle of coverage
to a range of 14mm to 85mm. A tilting/rotating flash head makes it easy
to perform bounce flash shooting. Depending on the camera and lens
you use with the SB-600, you can employ TTL auto flash and Manual
flash control. Other features include Advanced Wireless Lighting*
(including Modeling flash), Flash Value Lock (FV Lock), AUTO FP High

This Speedlight lets you use TTL automatic exposure, for wraparound
lighting of close-up subjects — free from distracting shadows. This is
made possible by two built-in flash modules which deliver fullsurround illumination. The flash output balance (left:right, right:left)
can be set to 1:4. And for a viewfinder preview of the effect the flash
will have on the scene you’re preparing to shoot, there’s modeling
A
flash mode. Extremely accurate focus adjustment is supported by a
convenient focus illuminator, and a wide illlumination panel lets you
shoot flash-to-subject distances closer than 40mm.

exposure with current and future generations of digital cameras featuring high sensitivity.
