Flash value lock (FV lock)
The SB-5000 sets the flash output to locked flash exposure. This maintains
the subject’s illumination, even if the composition changes.
• The flash exposure level (brightness) remains the same even when the
aperture is changed or lens is zoomed in and out, because the flash
output level automatically changes.
• Several frames can be shot during FV lock operation.
• FV lock also functions in Advanced Wireless Lighting.
• The available flash modes are i-TTL, auto aperture flash with monitor
pre-flashes and non-TTL auto flash with monitor pre-flashes.
• FV stands for flash value, meaning flash illuminated subject exposure.
Slow sync
The flash is controlled at a low shutter speed to obtain the correct
exposure for both the main subject and background in low-light
situations.
• Since low shutter speeds are normally used, use of a tripod is
recommended to prevent camera shake.
Red-eye reduction
The SB-5000 fires 3 flashes at low output just before the picture is taken to
reduce the red-eye effect caused by the flash light.
