The Nikon SB-5000 AF Speedlight sets a new standard for professional lighting with powerful output, advanced controls, and unmatched wireless capability. Introducing 2.4 GHz radio triggering to Nikon’s Creative Lighting System, it supports Advanced Wireless Lighting for up to six flash groups at distances up to 98', all without requiring direct line of sight. It also works seamlessly with Nikon’s optical triggering, making it easy to combine with legacy flashes for hybrid lighting setups. This flagship unit features the world’s first built-in cooling system in a shoe-mounted flash, enabling over 100 continuous full-power flashes without overheating—ideal for demanding assignments. With a guide number of 113' at ISO 100 and 35mm (180' at 200mm), it delivers robust performance in a compact form. The flash head tilts from -7° to 90° and rotates 180° for versatile bounce options, while its diffusion panel offers 14–24mm FX coverage. Power output is adjustable from 1/1 to 1/256, with flash exposure compensation from -3 to +3 EV in precise 1/3-step increments. Sync capabilities include slow, high-speed, 1st curtain, and 2nd curtain modes. Powered by four AA batteries, the SB-5000 recycles in 1.8–2.6 seconds, with the SK-6 Power Bracket or SD-9 Battery Pack available for faster performance. A backlit LCD, Info button, and PC terminal improve user interaction, while Unified Flash Control through Nikon’s Camera Control Pro 2 software allows full customization and firmware updates directly from the camera body.Bundle Items Include:Nikon SB-5000 AF Speedlight4x AA With ChargerCleaning Kit
