4 Cuando haga primeros planos en los que el sujeto esté a una distancia inferior a 0,4 metros, incline el cabezal del flash hacia abajo.

•Cuando vaya a fotografiar a un sujeto situado a menos de 0,4 metros, incline el cabezal del flash hacia abajo hasta la posición de 50° para iluminarlo suficientemente.

5 Para saber cuál es la abertura adecuada, utilice la tabla “Determinación de la abertura y la gama de distancias de fotografía con flash (pág. 117) y ajuste la misma abertura en la cámara.

•En el modo de flash automático no TTL, ajuste también la misma abertura en el dial selector de modo del SB-30.

6 Compruebe que el piloto de flash listo del SB-30 esté encendido y haga la foto.

• Si el piloto de flash listo del visor de la cámara parpadea después del disparo, consulte la página 117.

Adaptador de flash ancho incorporado

•El adaptador de flash ancho puede utilizarse también en otras operaciones diferentes a la fotografía de aproximación con flash.

•El ángulo de cobertura del SB-30 coincide con el de un objetivo de 28mm. El adaptador de flash ancho aumenta el ángulo de cobertura para adaptarlo a un objetivo de 17mm. El número guía disminuye de 16/52 a 10/33 (100 ISO, m/pies).

•Cuando se utiliza un objetivo de 17mm con el adaptador de flash ancho colocado, la distancia entre la cámara y el sujeto aumenta considerablemente del centro hacia la periferia del encuadre por lo que, en algunos casos, es posible que la zona periférica no quede suficientemente iluminada.

SB-30 specifications

The Nikon SB-30 is a compact and versatile speedlight designed to enhance photography by providing additional light in various situations. Released as part of Nikon’s range of portable flash units, the SB-30 is particularly favored for its lightweight design and advanced features that cater to both amateur and professional photographers.

One of the main features of the SB-30 is its compatibility with a wide array of Nikon cameras. This compatibility ensures that the flash can seamlessly integrate with both film and digital models, making it a practical option for users with different systems. The SB-30 supports TTL (Through The Lens) metering, allowing precise exposure control. This technology measures the light reflected from the subject through the lens, adjusting the flash output to provide optimal lighting conditions.

The flash has a guide number of approximately 30 (in meters at ISO 100), which offers sufficient power for a variety of shooting scenarios, whether indoors or outdoors. The SB-30 is equipped with a tilting head that can be angled to bounce light off ceilings or walls, creating softer, more natural lighting effects. This feature is particularly useful in portrait photography, where harsh direct light can lead to unflattering shadows.

Another notable characteristic of the SB-30 is its ability to utilize advanced wireless communication. It can function as a master or slave unit in a multi-flash setup, allowing photographers to create more dynamic lighting scenarios. This flexibility enables creative control over lighting in complex compositions, making it an excellent choice for event and studio photography.

The SB-30 is powered by four AA batteries, which provide a reasonable number of flashes per charge, depending on usage. Its compact size makes it easy to carry, making it a convenient choice for photographers on the go. Additionally, the flash unit features a built-in diffuser and a wide-angle adapter, which enhance its versatility by allowing for softer light and wider coverage.

In conclusion, the Nikon SB-30 stands out with its combination of portability, advanced TTL functionality, and versatile lighting capabilities. Whether for casual shooting or professional work, the SB-30 remains a reliable choice for those looking to improve their photography with the power of external flash lighting.
