DETAILS
This compact lighting unit can be mounted onto the hot shoe of your Nikon camera or fired wirelessly optically from either your camera's built-in flash or with a Nikon SU-800 Speedlight commander. For radio firing, you may optionally use (2) PocketWizards, such as the Plus X (one to trigger from your hot shoe and one to receive via a PC sync cable on the SB-5000).
The SB-5000 is the perfect choice for wedding photographers working alone or with assistants. It is also ideal for portrait and travel photographers who need to create the biggest light possible from a very small unit.
If you want to use the SB-5000's native radio receiver feature, you can only do that with the following combinations:
The WR-R10 needs to be updated to firmware 3.00 for Radio AWL to work. With the WR-R10 attached to your camera, check the firmware version through the camera menu (it will be signified by a 'W'). Adapters are not included with this rental.
