Setting Up Remote Flash Units - Nikon SB-5000 Reference Manual

Setting up Remote Flash Units

• Place all remote flash units in the same group close together and facing
the same direction.
• Use the provided Speedlight Stand AS-22 for stable positioning of the
remote flash units. Attach and detach the SB-5000 to and from the
AS-22 in the same way it is attached to/detached from the camera's
accessory shoe.
• When carrying the Speedlight Stand with the SB-5000 attached, be sure
to hold the SB-5000 in your hand.
• Be sure to check the status of the flash units before photographing.
• Set the zoom head position of the remote flash units wider than the
angle of view, so that the subject will receive sufficient illumination even
when the angle of the flash head is off axis from the subject. When the
flash-to-subject distance is very short, set the zoom head position wide
enough to achieve sufficient light.
