t Commander function
The “Commander function” enables the SB-900 to trigger remote flash units
without firing itself. To activate the “Commander function,” set the SB-900 as
the master flash unit and set its flash mode to “Flash canceled.”
This operation will normally not affect the correct exposure of the subject,
although the exposure might be affected if the subject is close and a high ISO
sensitivity has been set. To limit this effect as much as possible, bounce the light
by tilting or rotating the SB-900’s flash head.
Refer to “Commander mode” in your camera user’s manual when using a
camera’s built-in flash as a master flash unit to trigger the remote flash unit
(SB-900) in the commander mode.
