The ultimate speedlight for photographers requiring
maximum automation, integration, and control, the
SB-800’s i-TTL system supports advanced wireless
lighting and versatile functions for up to four groups of
speedlights, with three remote SB-600/SB-800’s
controlled through the master SB-800. i-TTL
(intelligent-through-the-lens) Balanced Fill-Flash
flash control employs Nikon's Advanced Data
Communication system to introduce an improved
method for the monitor pre-flash and wireless
operation—making wireless multiple flash photography
as automatic as a single on-camera speedlight.
Includes support for Nikon Advanced
wireless TTL operation, and can function
as a remote flash when controlled by the
SB-800 or the D70 digital SLR’s built-in
speedlight. Additionally, the SB-600’s Auto
FP High Speed Sync Mode allows it to fire at
up to 1/8000 second shutter speed when
used with the D2H digital SLR camera.
Built-in modeling flash fires a stroboscopic
burst of light for approximately one second,
allowing photographers to visually confirm
lighting and shadow effects before shooting.
Offers a full manual mode with power ratios
from full power to 1/64 power, in 1/2 step
increments for independent flash output
control and creative lighting effects.
Custom settings allow you to personalize the
speedlight according to selected preferences.
Equipped with a wide area illuminator that
assumes autofocus assist functions in low
light conditions. The Illuminator covers all
AF-points in all Nikon SLR cameras, giving
photographers the freedom to compose their
shots creatively and shoot with confidence.

SLR cameras, achieving performance that is
limited by each cameras capability:

SB-800
With all groups set for i-TTL the camera
measures pre-flash information from each
group and determines the exposure virtual-
ly instantaneously for maximum automa-
tion and ease of use.
Select a different flash mode for each
group—(including master controller) for
lighting control based on the brightness of
the subject and not on general output
ratios for each group—manual mode for
one, AA (Aperture Auto) for another, Flash
Compensation with i-TTL for the third, i-
TTL for the master controller—and adjust
settings for each from the camera position.
Auto flash control is set to match the cam-
era body: i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash control
with the D2H, D-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash
control and Auto Aperture Flash (AA) with
D1 Series and D100 digital SLR cameras,
and TTL and Non-TTL Auto Flash (A) with
film cameras
