Control
With the SB-5000, Advanced Wireless Lighting and direct remote wireless
multiple flash-unit photography (remote mode only) are possible using
optical control.
• Advanced Wireless Lighting is recommended for standard multiple
flash-unit photography.
• Direct remote wireless multiple flash-unit photography is particularly
suited to photographing fast-moving subjects.
Advanced Wireless Lighting
• A Speedlight compatible with Advanced Wireless Lighting (SB-5000,
SB-910, SB-700, SB-500, etc.) can be used as a remote flash unit.
• Up to 3 groups of remote flash units (A, B, C) can be set up.
• Single or multiple remote flash units can be allocated for 1 group.
• The master flash unit and each remote flash unit group can operate with
a flash compensation value that is different to the other flash units or
groups. In group flash mode, they can also operate with different flash
modes.
