Setting the aperture in bounce fl ash 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.
