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 natural-
looking 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
