Optional Flash Units (Speedlights) When used with a compatible device such as the SB-800, SB-600, and remote SB-R200 Speedlights (available separately), the D200 supports the full range of options available with the Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS), including i-TTL flash control ( 76), FV Lock ( 81), and Auto FP High-Speed Sync ( 160). Support for Advanced Wireless Lighting allows the built-in flash to be used as a commander unit for remote SB-800, SB-600, and SB-R200 Speedlights. See the Speedlight manual for details. Note that the built-in Speedlight will not fire when an optional Speedlight is attached. SB-800 and SB-600 Speedlights These high performance Speedlights have Guide Numbers of 38/125 and 30/98 respectively (m/ft, 35-mm zoom head position, ISO 100, 20 °C/68 °F). The flash head can be rotated through 90 ° above the horizontal, 180 ° left, and 90 ° right for bounce-flash or close-up photography. The SB-800 can be rotated 7 ° below the horizontal. Auto power zoom (24-105 mm and 24-85 mm, respectively) ensures that the illuminating angle is adjusted in accord with lens focal length. The built-in wide panel can be used for an angle of 14 mm (the SB-800 also supports 17 mm). An illuminator is included to assist in adjusting settings in the dark. SB-R200 Wireless Remote Speedlight This high-performance wireless remote Speedlight has a Guide Number of 10/32 (m/ft, ISO 100, 20 °C/68 °F). Although it cannot be mounted on the camera accessory shoe, the SB-R200 can be fired using an optional SB-800 Speedlight or SU-800 wireless Speedlight commander, or a camera with Advanced Wireless Lighting and a built-in flash. With the D200 in commander mode ( 163), the SB-R200 serves as a remote flash. It can held by hand, placed on an AS-20 Speedlight stand, or mounted on the camera lens using the SX-1 attachment for remote control and close-up i-TTL photography. Technical Notes-Optional Accessories Use Only Nikon Flash Accessories Use only Nikon Speedlights. Negative voltages or voltages over 250 V applied to the ac- cessory shoe could not only prevent normal operation, but damage the sync circuitry of the camera or flash. Before using a Nikon Speedlight not listed in this section, contact a Nikon-authorized service representative for more information. 177

Technical Notes—Optional Accessories
Optional Flash Units (Speedlights)
When used with a compatible device such as the SB-800, SB-600, and remote
SB-R200 Speedlights (available separately), the D200 supports the full range of
options available with the Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS), including i-TTL
flash control (
76), FV Lock (
81), and Auto FP High-Speed Sync (
160).
Support for Advanced Wireless Lighting allows the built-in flash to be used as a
commander unit for remote SB-800, SB-600, and SB-R200 Speedlights.
See the
Speedlight manual for details.
Note that the built-in Speedlight will not fire when
an optional Speedlight is attached.
SB-800 and SB-600 Speedlights
These high performance Speedlights have Guide Numbers of 38/125 and 30/98
respectively (m/ft, 35-mm zoom head position, ISO 100, 20 °C/68 °F).
The flash
head can be rotated through 90 ° above the horizontal, 180 ° left, and 90 ° right
for bounce-flash or close-up photography.
The SB-800 can be rotated 7 ° below
the horizontal.
Auto power zoom (24–105 mm and 24–85 mm, respectively) en-
sures that the illuminating angle is adjusted in accord with lens focal length.
The
built-in wide panel can be used for an angle of 14 mm (the SB-800 also supports
17 mm).
An illuminator is included to assist in adjusting settings in the dark.
SB-R200 Wireless Remote Speedlight
This high-performance wireless remote Speedlight has a Guide Number of 10/32
(m/ft, ISO 100, 20 °C/68 °F).
Although it cannot be mounted on the camera ac-
cessory shoe, the SB-R200 can be fired using an optional SB-800 Speedlight or
SU-800 wireless Speedlight commander, or a camera with Advanced Wireless
Lighting and a built-in flash.
With the D200 in commander mode (
163), the
SB-R200 serves as a remote flash.
It can held by hand, placed on an AS-20 Speed-
light stand, or mounted on the camera lens using the SX-1 attachment for re-
mote control and close-up i-TTL photography.
Use Only Nikon Flash Accessories
Use only Nikon Speedlights.
Negative voltages or voltages over 250 V applied to the ac-
cessory shoe could not only prevent normal operation, but damage the sync circuitry of
the camera or flash.
Before using a Nikon Speedlight not listed in this section, contact a
Nikon-authorized service representative for more information.
