Setting the aperture in bounce fl ash operation
In bounce flash, there is a light loss compared with normal flash photography •
(with flash head adjusted to the forward-facing position). Therefore, a two- or
three-step wider aperture (smaller f-number) should be used. Adjust according to
results.
When the flash head is adjusted to other than the forward-facing position, the
•
SB-910 LCD does not display the effective flash output distance range indicator.
To ensure correct exposure, first confirm the effective flash output distance range
and aperture with the flash head in the forward-facing position. Next, set this
aperture on the camera.

Using the built-in bounce card
In bounce flash photography, use the SB-910’s built-in bounce card to make a •
portrait subject’s eyes look more vibrant by reflecting the light in them.
Tilt the flash head up 90°. Refer to “Setting the flash head.” (

Setting the built-in bounce card
Pull out the bounce card and the built-in
wide panel and, while holding the bounce
card, slide the built-in wide panel back into
place inside the fl ash head.
To insert the bounce card, pull out the •
built-in wide panel again and slide both
back into place together.
