Flash compensation
Exposure compensation for a fl ash-illuminated subject without affecting
background exposure can be achieved by adjusting the SB-910’s fl ash output level.
Some plus compensation may be necessary to make the main subject brighter, •
and some minus compensation to make it darker.
Flash compensation is possible in i-TTL, auto aperture flash, non-TTL auto flash •
and distance-priority manual flash modes.
Press function button 2
to highlight the fl ash
compensation value.
Rotate the selector dial to set
desired fl ash compensation
value.
The compensation value can be set in •
1/3 EV steps from +3.0 EV to −3.0 EV.
Press the [OK] button.
v Canceling fl ash compensation
To cancel, rotate the selector dial to return the compensation value to “0.”•
Flash compensation cannot be canceled by simply turning the SB-910 off. •
t For digital SLR cameras with a built-in fl ash featuring the fl ash
compensation function
The flash compensation can also be set on the digital SLR camera with a built-in •
flash. For details, see the camera user’s manual.
If the flash is compensated on both the camera and the Speedlight, the flash •
output is modified by the sum total of both compensation values. In this case, the
SB-910’s LCD panel shows only the compensation value set on the SB-910.
