E t Setting the aperture in bounce flash operation

• In bounce flash, there is a light loss compared with normal flash photography (with flash head adjusted to front). Therefore, a two- or three-step wider aperture (smaller f-number) should be used. Adjust according to results.

• When the flash head is adjusted to other than the front position, the SB-700 LCD does not display the effective flash output distance range indicator. To ensure correct exposure, first confirm the effective flash output distance range and aperture with the flash head in the front position. Next, set this aperture on the camera.
