Electronic Flash Units
Nikon Speed lights are dedicated electronic flash units and
provide the perfect complement to your F3 High-Eyepoint
camera. Just set the aperture and flash output is measured
through the lens for correct exposures regardless of the lens
in use.
Speedlights SB-16A and 17
The SB-16A and SB-17 mount directly on the camera for auto-
matic TTL flash exposure control. The SB-16A features two
flash heads for more natural bounce-flash portraits: main head
tilts 90° and rotates 270°; the secondary head faces straight
ahead to provide catchlight in subject's eyes. Main head
zooms in and out to match the coverage of 28, 35, 50 and
85mm lenses with a guide number of 32 (ISO 100 and meters)
or 105 (ISO 100/feet). The light, compact SB-17 has a gUide
number of 25 (ISO lOO/meters) or 82 (ISO 100/feet) and fea-
tures a rotating flash head and tilting 90° flash tube module
for convenient bounce flash.
Speedlight SB-21A
The SB-21A lets you use TTL automatic exposure for macro
photography, and a convenient focus illuminator ensures pin-
point focus adjustment. The flash head offers a 65° horizon-
tal and 85° vertical angle of coverage, and a wide illumination
panel lets you shoot flash-to-subject distances closer than
40mm (approx. 1.6 in.). SB-21A can be used with an exter-
nal power source (AC or DC). Guide number is 13 (at ISO
lOO/meters) or 43 {at ISO 100/feet) with internal batteries, and
15 (or 49) with external power source.
