Close-up flash operation in AUTO mode

(Cameras in Groups I thru VI)

The SB-27 incorporates a built-in diffuser card which diffuses light, enabling you to take close-up flash pictures from 0.3m (1 ft.), softening harsh shadows and producing natural-looking results with the SB-27 mounted on the camera.

Two methods are possible:

(1)Mounting the SB-27 on the camera (See page 56.)

(2)Connecting the SB-27 to the camera using an optional TTL Remote Cord (See page 59.)

—With a very light or dark-toned subject, you may not get a correct exposure due to the subject's reflection factor. See page 60 on "Exposure compensation for flash photography" and page 69 on "Setting Forced TTL and Forced A modes" to ensure correct exposure.
