Using A Diffuser - Nikon SB-24 Instruction Manual

Bracket your exposures. If possible, take additional shots
with the camera's exposure compensation dial set in the
+
or - direction (not possible with Nikon F-401sl
N4004s) for TTL auto flash operation, or with the lens
opened up one or two f/stops for non-TTL auto flash
operation.

USING A DIFFUSER
To diffuse light, place a translucent material, such as one or
more sheets of tracing paper between the flash and the subject.
For optimum results , experiment with different flash-to-diffuser
distances and more than one diffuser. When using a diffuser,
use the 5B-24 in either TTL auto or manual flash mode.
• To protect the diffuser from burning, be sure it does not come
in direct contact with the S8-24
s
flash head.
• Avoid direct reflection from the translucent material to the
lens.
