Nikon SB-30 instruction manual Multiple flash shooting using cords

Multiple flash operation using the SB-30 as an infrared remote commander

With the built-in infrared filter in place, you can use the SB-30

as an infrared remote commander to perform wireless multiple flash, using slave flash units only to illuminate the subject without the use of a master flash unit.

•Set the flash mode to TTL auto flash; Non-TTL auto flash is not recommended.

•The infrared filter can be used together with the wide-flash adapter.

•Even though light leaks from both sides of the infrared filter, this will not affect the correct exposure.

•Without using the infrared filter, the master flash unit works as a normal flash unit and the subject is also illuminated by this flash unit.
