Nikon SB-910 Speedlight Unit

Product Information

When you use flash photography, you can make a big step change in your photography. When using flash, you add a fourth element, flash power, to the exposure triangle, which must be balanced with the other three elements to produce the best results. When using flash on the camera, it’s common for the camera to get confused with the exposure and result in an unflattering image. The first step is to set your ISO to 200. ISO 200 is an excellent starting point because it provides you with an extra layer of light. You will always need an aperture with a wider depth of field to begin, and the second step is to select F8 for beginners. As a result, using an aperture of f8 will help you avoid overexposure by keeping your shutter at a minimum of 1/200. Bounce capability: rotates 180° horizontally to the right and left; tilts up to 90° and down to 7°.

Speedlight SB-900 comes with a filter holder and 4 color correction film gels (2 green and 2 orange). Speedlight SB-910 comes with 1 green and 1 orange color correction filters which are made of hard plastic instead of film. The new filters are quite easier to change, and they should also last longer. All Nikon speedlights released since 2009 support high-speed sync (HSS), except for the SB-400, SB-700, SB-910, and SB-5000. HSS allows the flash to synchronize with the camera at shutter speeds faster than the camera’s native sync speed. This is useful for filling in shadows in high-contrast situations, or for freezing fast-moving subjects. The distance between a light source and a subject is calculated in feet and has an impact on the size of the area illuminated. Professional i-TTL (intelligent TTL) Speedlight: compatible with FX- and DX-format SLR cameras. Part of the Nikon Creative Lighting System, it offers total control over flash coverage. There are two sequences shown here. The first is for the Nikon D4, and just for good measure, the Nikon D700. The results remain consistent between the two cameras.The height (34 meters) is rated (29 feet) and measured. Ni-MH batteries (2600 mAh) are included. The battery can be charged with alkaline-manganese or 1.5v batteries. With a AA battery capacity of 230 mAh. Because less power is used for each pop than for every other, you’ll get thousands of flashes if you use it automatically. The eneloop can be used to shoot 165 shots with a capacity of 2,000 mAh. When you don’t use the 190 NI-MH battery, the battery runs out in a week. If you’re using a Nikon DSLR (D7000 series or higher) and Nikon Speedlight (SB-500 and up), you’ll be able to synchronize the flash to shutter speeds all the way up to the highest possible setting. Hss: Auto Fp High-speed Sync A camera flash, in addition to expanding the scope and enhancing the appearance of your photographs, can also improve the quality of your images. It is critical to be able to achieve the desired light mix between ambient and flash light. At the extremes, ordinary ambient light photography is used, and at the extremes, flash photography is used exclusively. According to the theory, an infinite number of flashes is theoretically possible. The internal flash of a compact camera will not reach the flash ratio of ten if the ambient light is intense or the flash is far away from the subject. Most cameras now have a flash that can be used as either a primary source of light or as a fill flash. There is a significant difference between program (P) and program (Av) mode, as well as shutter priority (Tv) mode.

Distance-priority manual flash: you tell the SB-910 the distance (it reads ISO and aperture from your camera), and it calculates and sets the manual power level to use before you shoot. This for me, implies that I might as well keep to the simpler algorithm when I work in bright light with flash: The flash also comes with a built-in bounce card and wide-angle diffuser… All of these made in Japan, if it matters to you.

What we Love...

This is a half-stop less than advertised, which ia actually quite impressive, as all previous Japanese flashes have measured a full stop less than advertised, so the SB-910 actually has a half-stop more power than I expected.
