Main features and functions
This Speedlight system, which features the Nikon Creative Lighting System
(CLS), provides a variety of wireless multiple flash and close-up flash operations.
The Speedlight system mainly consists of the Wireless Speedlight Commander
SU-800, which controls flash output when mounted on CLS-compatible cameras;
the Wireless Remote Speedlight SB-R200, which has a guide number of 10/33
(ISO 100, m/ft) or 14/46 (ISO 200, m/ft); and the Attachment Ring SX-1, which is
used to attach the SB-R200 to the front of the lens.
• When using CLS-compatible cameras, you can divide the Speedlight units into
three groups and control the flash output independently for each group.
• Wireless close-up flash operation is possible when the SU-800 is mounted on
a CLS-compatible camera to control the SB-R200 (p. 65).
• 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, which comes with
the unit.
• The SU-800 features a Commander function that can trigger wirelessly remote
flash units such as the SB-R200 and SB-600 without firing itself (p. 79).
• Included with the kit are a variety of accessories to help you enjoy close-up
flash shooting, such as the Extreme Close-Up Positioning Adapter SW-11,
Color Filter Set SJ-R200, Diffuser SW-12, and Flexible Arm Clip SW-C1.
• When using the SU-800 with cameras not compatible with CLS, only close-up
flash operation (using cords) is possible in use with the optional TTL Cord
SC-30 (p. 109).
