•Guide numbers in the above tables are for when the SB-700 is used with a D3 camera with a 1/500 sec. shutter speed.

•Guide number with auto FP high-speed sync varies depending on the camera’s

shutter speed. For example, when the shutter speed is changed from

1/500 sec. to 1/1000 sec., the guide number decreases 1 step. The faster the shutter speed, the smaller the guide number.
