The Nikon SB-700 AF Speedlight is a high-performance, moderately compact external flash that strikes the perfect balance between power and portability. Designed for both FX and DX-format cameras, it is fully compatible with Nikon’s i-TTL system and serves as a cornerstone of the Creative Lighting System (CLS). Whether you are shooting a fast-paced event or a controlled studio portrait, the SB-700 provides the sophisticated light shaping tools and wireless control needed to elevate your photography.
Versatile Light Shaping and Coverage
Auto Zoom Head: The flash intelligently adjusts its zoom head to match your lens’s focal length, covering a range of 24120mm (FX) or 14120mm (DX). For ultra-wide shots, the built-in diffusion panel extends coverage down to a staggering 12mm.
Full Bounce and Swivel: Achieve soft, natural lighting by bouncing the flash off walls or ceilings. The head tilts from -7° to 90° and rotates a full 180° in both directions, providing complete 360-degree coverage.
Customizable Illumination Patterns: Choose between three light distribution modes: Standard for general use, Even for group shots and large spaces, and Center-Weighted for highlighting specific subjects or using telephoto lenses.
Advanced Wireless Mastery
Commander Mode: Take your lighting off-camera. The SB-700 can act as a Master controller, wirelessly managing multiple remote flashes across two groups (A and B) and four channels.
Quick Wireless A:B Ratios: Easily adjust the lighting ratio between two groups of flashes directly from the SB-700’s intuitive interface, allowing for rapid creative lighting setups without leaving your camera.
Auto FP High-Speed Sync: Break the limits of your camera’s sync speed. This mode allows you to use flash even with fast shutter speeds, perfect for wide-aperture outdoor portraits in bright sunlight.
Intelligent and Safety-Focused Design
Thermal Cut-Out Protection: To ensure longevity and reliability during intense shooting sessions, the flash monitors its internal temperature and automatically slows recycle times or shuts down to prevent overheating.
Color Filter Detection: When using Nikon’s specialized color filters, the SB-700 communicates the filter type to the camera, automatically adjusting the White Balance for perfectly natural color reproduction.
Intuitive Interface: A large, backlit LCD and rotating command dial make it easy to navigate settings, while the 2.53.5 second recycle time ensures you are always ready for the next shot.
