1 Close-up flash operation Wireless close-up flash operation is possible when the SU-800 and SB-R200 are used with CLS-compatible cameras. The SB-R200 can be attached to the front of the lens, held in your hand, or freely positioned by using the Speedlight Stand AS-20. The flexibility of close-up flash operation sets it apart from conventional lighting systems. Example A A-1 Flash setup SU-800 Group B SB-R200 Group A LOCK SB-R200 Dual-light close-up flash operation (one flash unit attached to the front of the lens + one held in the hand) With one SB-R200 attached to the front of the lens, the subject in front is strongly illuminated, while a second SB-R200 held in the hand illuminates the subject from the left to soften harsh shadows and further highlight the subject, in this case a ladybug. Example B B-1 • Camera: D70 • Lens: AF Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8D • Group A: SB-R200 (TTL) • Group B: SB-R200 (TTL) A-2, A-3, and A-4 examples in "Close-up Speedlight Photography Examples" were also taken under the same conditions as with A-1. Flash setup SU-800 Group A SB-R200 Group B SB-R200 Dual-light close-up flash operation (one flash unit attached to the front of the lens + one held in the hand) With one SB-R200, held in the hand, used as the main flash unit, the subject is strongly illuminated from the lower left, while a second SB-R200 attached to the front of the lens is used to illuminate the subject from the upper right to emphasize the contours of the flower's petals, resulting in softened textures. 66 • Camera: D70 • Lens: AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D • Group A: SB-R200 (TTL) • Group B: SB-R200 (TTL) B-2, B-3, and B-4 examples in "Close-up Speedlight Photography Examples" were also taken under the same conditions as with B-1.
