Wireless Multiple Flash-unit Photography
Checking Status in Wireless Multiple Flash-unit Photography
The  ash-ready indicator on the SB-910 and the sound monitor can be used to
check that wireless multiple  ash-unit photography is operating during and after
taking a picture.
The sound monitor can be used to check the operational status of a remote flash •
unit. This function can be activated or canceled with function button 3.
When the SB-910 is used in remote mode, either of the flash-ready indicators can •
be turned off in the custom settings to reduce power consumption. In default
setting, the back flash-ready indicator lights up and the front flash-ready indicator
blinks. (0B-19)
