To perform TTL multiple flash operation, use the following optional
accessories.
Wireless Slave Flash Controller SU-4
Accessories for Multiple Flash Operation
TTL Remote Cord SC-17 (approx. 1.5m/4.9 ft.)/SC-24 (approx. 1.5m/4.9 ft.)
• Use the SC-17/SC-24 for off-camera TTL auto flash operation or TTL multiple
flash operation with the SB-50DX. Two TTL multiple flash terminals and one
tripod socket are provided. For F5 cameras with the DW-30/DW-31 finder or for
F4 cameras with the DW-20/DW-21 finder, use the SC-24.
TTL Multi-Flash Sync Cord SC-18 (approx. 1.5m/4.9 ft.)/SC-19 (approx.
3m/9.8 ft.)
• Use the SC-18 or SC-19 cord to connect the Speedlights via the TTL multiple
flash terminal (on the AS-10, SC-17, etc.) for TTL multiple flash operation.
TTL Multi-Flash Adapter AS-10
• The TTL Multi-Flash Adapter AS-10 can be connected to perform TTL multiple
flash operation using cords for slave flash Speedlight units that do not have TTL
multiple flash terminals. However, in TTL multiple flash operation using cords, use
of the SB-50DX (or SB-23) as a slave flash unit is not recommended (p. 55). The
tripod socket of the AS-10 enables stable placement of the Speedlight unit on a
tripod or Bracket SK-7 in wireless multiple flash operation.
• Three multiple flash terminals are provided on the AS-10.
• The SK-7 is used to position the camera and
SB-50DX horizontally for multiple flash
operation.
• Use the TTL Multi-Flash Adapter AS-10 to
attach the SB-50DX on the Bracket SK-7.
• The SU-4 enables a Speedlight other than the
SB-80DX, 50DX and 30 to be used as a slave
flash unit to perform wireless multiple flash
operation (p. 48).
