SB 400
External Flash
| Nikon announces the Nikon Speedlight SB 400 External Flash,
an intelligent and
versatile external flash unit that provides i-TTL flash operation in a
super-compact and ultra-lightweight body at an affordable price.
With its powerful guide number of 21, the SB-400
is an ideal flash unit
for beginners in digital SLR photography, but it is also useful for
hobbyists and professionals looking for a handy i-TTL flash unit
offering an effortless bounce flash function.
The SB-400 has
been specifically developed to provide photographers with an
entry-level external flash unit which is compatible with i-TTL flash
operation. When combined with cameras that are compatible with the
Nikon Creative Lighting System, the SB-400 is controlled in i-TTL and
D40's M (manual) mode.
The SB-400's flash head can be tilted in
4 steps--horizontal, as well as 60, 75, and 90 degrees--and has a flash
shooting distance range of between 60cm to 20m (depending on the
camera's ISO setting). Slow Sync, Red-eye Reduction and other flash
modes can also be set on the camera body, enabling users to enjoy
brighter and more natural lighting for better flash pictures.

| "f
you need a small flash that is a lot more powerful than the on-camera
flash on your compatible Nikon camera, this is a great flash. More than
anything, it's a better than on-camera flash that also has bounce
capability, which none of the on-camera flashes do." |

| "I
really like this flash unit. The reason is simple: it is small and
unobtrusive. Most flashes add weight and bulk to a camera, and I often
find myself deciding not to attach the outboard flash to my DSLR. This
flash, by contrast, is small and barely noticeable on my D80 or D200." |
