The Nikon Creative Lighting System (CIS)
Nikon's advanced Creative Lighting System (CLS) offers improved communication
between the camera and compatible flash units for improved flash photography.
II CLS-Compatible Flash Units
The camera can be used with the following CLS-compatIble flash units:
. The SB-900, SB-800, SB-700, SB-600, SB-400, and SB-R200:

1 If a color filter is attached to the SB-900 when AUTO or ^ (flash) is selected for white balance, the
camera will automatically detect the filter and adjust white balance appropriately.

SB-700 with standard illumination.
• The SU-800 wireless speedlight commander: When mounted on a CLS-compatIble
camera, the SU-800 can be used as a commander for remote SB-900, SB-800,
SB-700, SB-600, or SB-R200 flash units in up to three groups. The SU-800 itself is
not equipped with a flash.
@ Guide Number
To calculate the range of the flash at full power, divide the Guide Number by the aperture.
For example, at ISO 100 the SB-800 has a Guide Number of 38 m or 125 ft. (35 mm zoom head
position); its range at an aperture of f/5.6 is 383-5.6 or about 6.8 meters (or in feet,
1253-5.6=approximately 23 ft. 7 in.). For each twofold increase in ISO sensitivity, multiply
the Guide Number by the square root of two (approximately 1.4).
