1 Set the camera’s exposure mode to Aperture- Priority Auto (A) or Manual (M).

2 Set the camera’s metering system to Matrix Metering Y or Center-Weighted Metering W.

3 Set the flash mode to TTL auto flash.

4 Set the camera’s aperture.

• Between 2 and 3 stops of light can be lost when using bounce flash, compared with normal flash photography, so use a wider aperture.

5 Adjust the flash head.

6 Make sure that the ready-light is on, then shoot.

• When the flash has fired at its maximum output and underexposure may have occurred, the ready-light on the SB-600 blinks for approx. 3 sec. To compensate, use a wider aperture or move closer to the subject and reshoot.
