❚❚ Bounce Lighting
Light from the flash can be “bounced” (reflected) from a ceiling
or wall, dispersing the light from the flash to make shadows less
harsh and reduce glare from hair, skin, clothing and foreground
objects.
The flash head on the optional SB-N5 flash unit can be rotated
90 ° up and 180 ° left or right.

Bounce Lighting
If possible, bounce flash lighting from a reflective white or near-white
surface; light reflected from other surfaces may change the colors in
the photograph. If no suitable surface can be found nearby, a piece of
white paper (A4 or letter sized) can be used instead, but be sure to
check the results in the camera display.

The Capture Illuminator
The optional SB-N5 flash unit offers a capture
illuminator that lights to illuminate subjects
in Smart Photo Selector and Motion Snap-
shot modes (0 31, 45). The illuminator will
light for about six seconds during buffering,
illuminating subjects about 1 m (3.3 ft) from
the camera. Before shooting, confirm that
the capture-illuminator status indicator is lit.
