About the SB-700 and This User’s Manual

Terminology

Default settings: function and mode settings at the time of purchase

Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS): a lighting system that enables various

ash photography functions with improved communication between Nikon

Speedlights and cameras

Illumination patterns: control types of light falloff at edges; the SB-700 provides

three illumination patterns, standard, center-weighted and even.

FX format/DX format: Nikon digital SLR camera image area types (FX format:

36 × 24, DX format: 24 × 16)

Guide number (GN): the amount of light generated by a ash unit; GN = ash-

to-subject distance (m or ft.) × f-number of aperture (ISO 100)

Zoom head position: position of a Speedlight zoom head; the angle of coverage

changes as the zoom head position changes.

Effective ash output distance: ash-to-subject distance with correctly

adjusted ash output

Effective ash output distance range: range of effective ash output distance

Flash compensation: intentional ash output change to obtain the desired

subject brightness

A–7

Preparation

i-TTL mode: ash mode in which the SB-700 res monitor pre-ashes and the

camera measures the reected light and controls the SB-700 ash output

Monitor pre-ashes: scarcely visible ashes emitted before actual ring that

enable the camera to measure the light reected on a subject

i-TTL balanced ll-ash: i-TTL mode type in which ash output level is

adjusted to well-balanced exposure of the main subject and background

Standard i-TTL: i-TTL mode type in which ash output level is adjusted to the

correct exposure of the main subject regardless of background brightness

Manual ash mode: ash mode in which the ash output level and aperture are

manually set to obtain the desired exposure

Distance-priority manual ash mode: manual ash mode with distance

priority; the ash-to-subject distance is set and the Speedlight ash output level

is adjusted in accordance with the camera settings.

Step: a unit of the shutter speed or aperture change; a change of one step halves/

doubles the amount of light entering the camera

EV (Exposure Value): each increment of 1 in exposure value corresponds to a

one-step change in exposure, which is made by halving/doubling shutter speed

or aperture
