The Nikon Creative Lighting System - To many photographer's, flash photography is a mystery. Truth is, there are many other uses for a strobe other than setting it on "Auto". Many interesting and creative effects can be achieved through the proper use of strobe and, in this plainly written book, the author shows you how to do it.

In addition to explaining the system in great detail, it also has a complete chapter showing system configuration so readers can duplicate the photos on their own.

The Nikon system of flash is a dynamic tool - especially the SB-600, SB-800, SB-900, and R1C1 flash units. This book will explain not only how to effectively use them but how to use them more creatively. Once you master some simple techniques which are explained in this edition, you will find your images will take on a newer and more professional appearance.

      You almost need this book to understand the Nikon Creative Lighting System. But large numbers of pages are product-specific, so what you really get is 50 or 60 critical pages for [$]. Worth it, but expensive!

        I wanted a book that would explain the details of the CLS system. I loved this book, in fact the information in the book was so detailed that after reading the book I purchased a new SB-900 flash to be the center piece of my new lighting system. I received the flash, set it up with my SB-600 as a slave and started shooting. In my opinion everyone interested in flash lighting should have this book on their bookshelf.

          I bought this at the same time as I bought my Nikon SB900, and it was definitely good help.
          It explains in a easy-to-understand way the basics of flash photography, and also more importantly how to use your flash in every way thinkable.
