Available functions to be set on the camera

The following functions are available when used with cameras so equipped. Set these functions on the camera. They cannot be set on the SB-900 directly.

For detailed information regarding camera functions and settings, refer to your camera user’s manual.

Auto FP High-Speed Sync mode

High-Speed flash synchronization at a compatible camera’s highest shutter speed is possible.

The Auto FP High-Speed Sync mode is automatically set when the shutter speed exceeds the camera’s sync shutter speed.

This is useful when you want to use a wider aperture to achieve shallow depth of field to blur the background without worrying about sync shutter speed.

Auto FP High-Speed sync also operates in the Advanced Wireless Lighting mode.

Available flash modes are i-TTL, Auto Aperture flash with monitor pre-flashes, Non-TTL auto flash with monitor pre-flashes, Distance-priority manual flash, and Manual flash when using a single flash unit.

For flash shooting distance range in the TTL auto flash mode and the guide numbers in the Auto FP High-Speed Sync mode, refer to “Specifications.”

Flash Value Lock (FV Lock)

Using FV Lock, you can lock in the appropriate flash exposure, while keeping the subject illumination constant even if you change the composition.

The flash exposure (brightness) remains the same even when you change the aperture or zoom the lens in and out, because the flash output level automatically follows.

It is possible to take up to a several number of frames during FV Lock operation.

Available flash modes are i-TTL, Auto Aperture flash with monitor pre-flashes and Non-TTL auto flash with monitor pre-flashes.

FV stands for Flash Value, meaning flash illuminated subject exposure.

Slow-sync flash

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