FOREWORD
Slim and lightweight, this is the ideal
flash unit for the occasionaluser as it
slipseasilyinto the pocket
or gadget
bag.
But compact size
has
rlot been
gained
at
the expense of performance. A flash
guide
numberof 14
(in
meters;ASA100)
providesplenty of power for all but the
most demanding of situations. Versa-
tility is further enhanced by the pro-
vision of a shooting mode selector,
which givesyou choiceof either of two
apertures,thus allowing you to exercise
further control on your composition by
the selectiveuseof depth of field.
To obtain the best resultsfrom your
SB-9,readtheinstructions
in thismanual
carefully before use. Keep this booklet
handy for quick referenceuntil you have
fully mastered
operation.A few minutes
of preparation
will help
you avoidcostly
mistakes.

fy. lt the batteries aretoaded incorrectly,
not only will they be depleted-the SB-9
could also be damaged.
Whenthe batteries
