6 Repeating (RPT) flash operation What is Repeating flash operation In Repeating flash operation, the Speedlight fires repeatedly during a single exposure, creating stroboscopic multiple-exposure effects. This operation is useful when shooting fast-moving subjects. When using cameras compatible with CLS, the SU-800 controls the flash output of the remote flash units (such as the SB-910, SB-900, SB-800), which are divided into three groups (A, B, and C), independently for each group. • Be sure to read the user's manual of the Speedlight in use. Usable Speedlight SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700, SB-600 Notes on Repeating flash operation • The SB-R200 cannot be used. • Setting the flash units in group A or B to fire or cancel is not possible using the [A B] select button. Use the flash mode setting. • Be sure to use fresh batteries and allow enough time for the flash to recycle between each repeating flash session. • Also, because of the slower shutter speeds, use of a tripod is recommended to prevent camera/flash shake.
