Nikon SB-600 user manual Multiple flash shooting using cords

Multiple flash shooting using cords

The SB-600 can be used with Speedlights compatible with the TTL auto flash mode to perform multiple flash shooting using cords.

•When using a Speedlight that has a standby function as a remote flash unit, make sure that the standby function is set to off, or select a standby duration that is long enough by using the Custom Settings.

•Use of the SB-50DX and SB-23 as remote flash units is not recommended, because the standby function cannot be canceled.

•Speedlights SB-11, SB-14, SB-140, and SB-21B cannot be used with the F-401/N4004 or F-401s/N4004s as either master or remote flash units.

•There is no limitation in usable cameras.

•With cameras compatible with CLS and digital SLRs not compatible with CLS, Manual flash operation only is possible.
