About this item
Product details
Featuring an LED video light and a compact design, the SB-500 AF Speedlight from Nikon provides users with a portable unit compatible with Nikon's I-TTL metering. The flash has a good power rating with a guide number of 79'at ISO 100 and offers coverage for a 24mm lens with FX-format full-frame cameras. Also, the 100 lux LED light has three output levels-quarter, half, or full power- which is beneficial for both videos and close-up still photography. Versatility is important in this unit with the ability to tilt upward90°, and rotate left and right 180° for excellent bounce and swivel capabilities. The flash will also function wirelessly as either a commander unit or a remote slave for full compatibility with cameras, other flash units, and wireless flash controllers in Nikon's Creative Lighting System. Other features include slow, Auto FP high-speed, 1st, and 2nd curtain synchronization. The SB-500 will also transmit LED and flash color information to the camera for setting an optimal white balance and runs on 2 AA batteries, which provide a recycle time as fast as 3.5 seconds. Included with the camera are a soft case and stand.
- With its guide number of 24/78.7, the compact and lightweight SB-500 offers superior portability and is easy to use as it is powered by two readily available AA-size batteries
- Its flash head can be tilted up to 90 up and rotated horizontally up to 180 to the left and right, allowing users to enjoy natural lighting effects with the reflection of the flash off a ceiling or wall using bounce flash photography
- In addition, the simple positioning of operational buttons and switches makes the SB-500 easy to use
- The SB-500 is equipped with a very bright LED light. At approximately 100 lx, this LED light provides the optimal brightness for recording movies and photographing objects at close distances
- In addition to the ability to select from three levels of brightness, the adoption of a diffusion panel for a surface light source enables soft lighting
- The SB-500 also supports the Flash Color Information Communication function, and the camera uses flash color temperature information from the LED light to automatically apply the optimal white balance setting
- The SB-500 supports six functions available with the Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS) and Nikon's exclusive Speedlight system, all with simple operation
- It can be used as either a master flash unit or a remote flash unit with wireless multiple flash-unit photographs, enabling more creative expression that makes the most of light with control over diverse light sources from a variety of angles

A flash that does everything
This flash, not only fills in, uniformly, but it also has LEDs on the front that can be switched on whenever you record a video. This thing runs rings around the built-in flash of my Nikon D7500...#sweepstakes
