Shooting a subject when the SB-30 is placed away from the camera When the SB-30 is placed away from the camera to perform multiple flash, you can take more naturallooking pictures with sufficient illumination. Set the SB-30's Mode selector dial to Wireless salve flash (A) to perform wireless multiple flash operation in the TTL auto or Non-TTL auto flash mode. • The COOLPIX 900, COOLPIX 700 series, COOLPIX 800 series and COOLPIX 2500 cameras that fire one preliminary flash are usable. • Speedlights such as the SB-30, SB-80DX, SB-50DX, etc. that feature a wireless multiple flash function can be used as the slave flash unit. Also, any other Speedlight compatible with TTL auto flash, when mounted on the optional Wireless Slave Flash Controller SU-4, is usable. • In the wireless slave flash (A) mode, the maximum shooting distance of the SB-30's light sensor is approx. 5m (16 ft.). • Position the slave flash unit so that light from the master flash unit only reaches the light sensor of the slave flash unit. If too much light from other slave flash units enters the light sensor of the slave flash unit directly or indirectly, correct operation may not be possible 24 Slave flash unit 1: SB-30 Main subject Slave flash unit 2* Camera: All Nikon SLRs and Digital cameras.
