The SB-5000, SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700, SB-600, SB-500, and
SB-400 provide red-eye reduction in red-eye reduction and slow-sync
with red-eye reduction ash modes.
“Noise” in the form of lines may appear in ash photographs taken
with an SD-9 or SD-8A high-performance battery pack attached
directly to the camera. Reduce ISO sensitivity or increase the distance
between the camera and the battery pack.
The camera provides AF-assist illumination as required. AF-assist
illuminators on optional ash units will not light.
When an SC-series 17, 28, or 29 sync cable is used for o-camera ash
photography, correct exposure may not be achieved in i-TTL mode.
We recommend that you select standard i-TTL ll-ash. Take a test
shot and view the results in the camera display.
In i-TTL, do not use any form of ash panel (diusion panel) other
than the ash unit’s built-in ash panel or supplied bounce adapter.
Using other panels may produce incorrect exposure.
