Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash in daylight

Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash at night

Nikon dedicated electronic speedlights, including SB-24, SB-23, SB-22, SB-20, SB-18, SB-16B and SB-15, take full advantage of the F4's built-in computer, which automatically synchronize the camera'sshutter speed and lens aperture to provide precisely controlled exposures. This means you can perform automatic balanced fil l-flash in TIL mode in every flash shooting situation, for beautiful, naturally balanced exposure for fore- grounds and backgrounds.

Using automatic balanced fill-flash, the F4 together with a Nikon speedlight allows the photographer a choice of different flash techniques, such as Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash and Center-Weighted Fill-Flash.
