Bounce flash operation Applicable to all camera groups When taking pictures indoors, direct flash often causes harsh, unattractive shadows on the subject or background. By bouncing the light off the ceiling or walls, you can soften the shadows and produce more natural-looking portraits. With the SB-28's built-in bounce card, you can create a highlight in the subject's eyes. (See page 61, Using the built-in bounce card.) Bounce flash shooting using diffused light Normal flash shooting using direct flash Camera settings 1 Select the exposure mode. -Set camera's exposure mode to Aperture-priority auto (A) or Manual (M). 2 Set the aperture. • With bounce flash, there is a 2 to 3 stop light loss or more, depending on the height of the ceiling, when compared with normal flash operation. Therefore, you should use the largest aperture (smaller f-number) possible and bracket your exposures. 58
