Schonen der Batterie mithilfe der Standby-Funktion

Wenn sich der Hauptschalter des SB-30 in der Position STBY befindet, wird die Standby- Funktion nur dann aktiviert, sofern die Wählscheibe für die Blitzfunktionen auf TTL- Blitzautomatik, Computer-Blitzautomatik oder manuelle Blitzsteuerung eingestellt ist.

Wenn Sie das SB-30 und die Kamera ca. 40 Sekunden lang nicht benutzen, wird die Standby-Funktion aktiviert und das SB-30 automatisch ausgeschaltet, um die Batterie zu schonen.

Die Standby-Funktion wird nicht aktiviert, wenn als Blitzmodus der kabellos gesteuerte Slave-Blitzbetrieb gewählt wurde. Achten Sie in diesem Falle darauf, dass das Blitzgerät eingeschaltet ist (ON) und dass es mit Strom versorgt wird.

So schalten Sie das SB-30 wieder ein, nachdem die Standby-Funktion aktiviert worden ist:

Drücken Sie die Taste zum (Wieder) Einschalten des SB-30 im Standby-Betrieb/ Abschalten des Slave-Blitzbetriebs.

Tippen Sie an einer Kamera, die mit der TTL-Blitzautomatik kompatibel ist, leicht auf den Auslöser.

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.
