Frequently asked questions

How do I achieve bounce flash with the SB‑800?

Tilt the flash head upward at least 50° and aim it at a white or highly reflective surface such as a ceiling or wall.

What is the purpose of FV Lock?

FV Lock locks the flash exposure so the subject stays correctly exposed even if you change aperture, composition, or zoom.

How does red‑eye reduction work with the SB‑800?

Red‑eye reduction is controlled by the camera settings, not the flash itself.
