Functions to Be Set on the Camera

Flash value lock (FV lock)

The SB-700 sets the flash output to locked flash exposure. This maintains the subject’s illumination, even if the composition changes.

The flash exposure level (brightness) remains the same even when the aperture is changed or lens is zoomed in and out, because the flash output level automatically changes.

Several frames can be shot during FV lock operation.

FV lock also functions in Advanced Wireless Lighting.

Functions

The available flash modes are i-TTL and quick wireless control.

FV stands for flash value, meaning flash illuminated subject exposure.

Slow sync

The flash is controlled at a slow shutter speed to obtain the correct

Eexposure for both the main subject and background in low-light situations.

Since slow shutter speeds are normally used, use of a tripod is recommended to prevent camera shake.
