FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY

Nikon dedicated electronic speedlights, including SB-24, SB-23, SB-22,

SB-20, SB-18, SB-16B and SB-15, take full advantage of the F4’s built-in
computer, which automatically synchronize the camera’s shutter speed
and lens aperture to provide precisely controlled exposures. This means

you can perform automatic balanced fill-flash in TTL mode In every flash
shooting situation, for beautiful, naturally balanced exposure tor fore­
grounds and backgrounds.

Using automatic balanced fill-flash, the F4 together with a Nikon speedlight

allows the photographer a choice of different flash techniques, such as

Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash and Center-Weighted Fill-Flash.
