Nikon SB-30 instruction manual Conserving battery power using the Standby function

Conserving battery power using the Standby function

•If the SB-30’s power switch is set to the STBY position, the Standby function is activated only when the Mode selector dial is set to either TTL auto, Non-TTL auto, or Manual flash mode.

•If the SB-30 and the camera are not used for approx. 40 seconds, the Standby function activates and automatically turns the SB-30 off to conserve battery power. This is called the standby state.

•The Standby function does not work if the Mode selector dial is set to the Wireless slave flash mode. Take care that the power remains on and is consuming.

To turn the SB-30 on again after it enters in the standby state, you can:

•Press the Standby resume button/Slave flash firing cancel button.

•Lightly press the shutter release button on a camera that is compatible with the TTL auto flash mode.
