Manual Flash ƒ Mode

The built-in TTL auto flash sensor in cameras so equipped measures the illumination
provided by the SB-22s that is reflected back from the subject. This measurement is made
through-the-lens and when the light is sufficient to ensure proper exposure, the camera
sends a signal to the SB-22s to stop firing. TTL Auto Flash TTL mode* provides simple
and effective flash operation, recommended for users with little experience with flash.

The SB-22s’s built-in sensor measures the flash illumination reflected back from the
subject, automatically controlling the flash output to give you the correct exposure.
This is called the Non-TTL Auto Flash A mode. A choice of four shooting apertures at
A1 to A4 are available, covering a variety of shooting distances.

In this mode, the flash always fires at full output. Manual flash photography is recommended
when shooting subjects in which the correct exposure is difficult to obtain in the TTL or
Non-TTL Auto Flash mode or when you want to exercise your creative preferences.

Instruction Manual

Install four penlight batteries following the + and - symbols inside the
chamber. Reattach the battery chamber lid by aligning the indices on the
lid and flash unit and sliding it up as far as it will go.

●

For Nikon FM3A, New FM2 and FM10 cameras, manually set the shutter speed to
the flash sync shutter speed or slower.
For other cameras, the shutter speed is automatically set to the flash sync
speed. (You can intentionally set the shutter speed to one slower than the flash
sync speed.) Refer to your camera’s instruction manual for details.

Set the SB-22s’s mode selector to either A1, A2, A3 or A4 depending on
the aperture selected that brings the subject within the flash shooting
distance range. The illuminated f-number shown in the window at left is the
aperture you should use.

●

Congratulations. You are now the proud owner of the Nikon Autofocus Speedlight
SB-22s, a flash unit offering compact design and easy operation. With a powerful flash
output (GN 28 at ISO 100, m), the SB-22s can be used not only for shooting in dimly lit
interiors or outside at night, but for daylight fill-in flash. The SB-22s features three flash
modes: TTL Auto, Non-TTL Auto, and Manual. In the Non-TTL Auto mode, you have a
choice of four shooting apertures at A1, A2, A3 and A4. Other advanced flash
capabilities include Bounce, Close-up, and Multiple Flash. To get the most out of your
new flash unit, please read this manual before use.
● Make some test shots
Before taking important flash photographs, make some test shots to ascertain the
SB-22s is working properly.

Four penlight batteries of any of the following types may be used:
① AA-type zinc-carbon ② AA-type alkaline-manganese ③ AA-type NiCd
(rechargeable) ④ AA-type Ni-MH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) (rechargeable)
⑤ AA-type (1.5V) lithium
For more information on batteries, refer to “Notes on Batteries.”

CAUTION
When replacing batteries, replace all four batteries at the same time, do not mix
battery types or brands, do not use old with new batteries, and never reverse
the polarity of the batteries when installing. Otherwise, the batteries may catch
on fire or explode, due to the possible leakage of corrosive liquids.
● In the event that corrosive liquids do seep from the batteries, avoid touching the
liquids. Certain types of batteries contain strong alkaline liquids. If the alkaline
liquids stick to your skin or clothes, wash immediately with running water.
●

Loosen the SB-22s’s mounting foot lock nut ①. Slide the SB-22s into the
camera’s accessory shoe ② and tighten the lock nut ③.

● Use only Nikon-approved equipment
The SB-22s is designed for use with Nikon cameras, lenses, and accessories.
−Using cameras or accessories other than those specified by Nikon may damage
the SB-22s.
−Nikon cannot be held responsible for malfunctions caused by using the SB-22s in
ways not specified in this manual, or using the SB-22s with a camera made by
another manufacturer.

For example, when shooting with ISO 100 film, with the angle of coverage adjusted
to N-35mm, selecting f/5.6 lets you take pictures of subjects at a distance of approx.
5m (16.4 ft.) away, while f/2.8 lets you take pictures of subjects approx. 10 m (32.8 ft.)

cameras with Nikkor lenses with a built-in CPU*: First set the lens to its minimum aperture
(largest f-number) (except G-type Nikkor lenses**), then set the aperture on the camera
using the aperture dial or button after zooming in or out to determine the focal length
setting. In this way, the variable aperture will be automatically compensated by the camera.

(Use the following method for cameras listed on the left when combined with Nikkor lenses
without a built-in CPU.)

Align the aperture ring between the green and yellow aperture indexes after
zooming in or out to determine the focal length setting.
● If the zoom lens has a maximum aperture difference of approx. 1 or more f/stop
between the longest and shortest focal length positions (see the figures below),
align the aperture ring with the green aperture index for a wide setting, and align
the aperture with the yellow aperture index for a telephoto setting. For intermediate
focal length settings, set the aperture ring somewhere between the green and
yellow aperture indexes depending on the focal length in use.

Exposure Compensation in Flash Photography

Autofocus Flash Operation in Dim Light

Some plus compensation may be necessary when the background includes a mirror,
white wall, or other highly reflective surface. Otherwise, underexposed pictures might
occur. Similarly, some minus compensation may be required when the background is
dark or includes subjects of low reflectivity to prevent overexposed pictures. In these
cases, making exposure compensation is recommended to obtain the correct exposure.
Normally, exposure compensation within the range of -2 to +1 steps is recommended.

For autofocus cameras only

With exposure compensation

When the light is too dim for normal autofocus operation, the SB-22s’s AF assist illuminator
LED automatically turns on to illuminate dark subjects when the shutter release button is
pressed halfway. The AF assist illuminator LED turns off as soon as the subject is in focus.

Without exposure compensation

NOTE
The subject must be within the range of 1m (3.3 ft) to 5m (16.4 ft) at 20˚C (68˚F).
Replace the SB-22s’s batteries whenever the ready-light becomes dark or blinks
after the AF assist illuminator LED turns on.
● If the AF assist illuminator LED comes on but no in-focus indicator appears in the
camera’s viewfinder with the shutter release button pressed halfway, the subject is
either too far away or too dark for the camera AF-sensor even with the AF assist
illuminator LED. In this case, set the flash mode selector to Manual M and focus
manually.
●
●

Exposure compensation in TTL Auto Flash “TTL” mode
Make exposure compensation on the camera to match the shooting situation.
Consult the instruction manual provided with your camera for specific information on
procedures for exposure compensation.
● When shooting a subject containing highly reflective surfaces, use some plus
compensation. When the background is very dark, or the subject is in deep
shadows, use some minus compensation.
●

Conditions necessary to activate the AF assist illuminator LED:
The subject must be sufficiently dark.
AF Nikkor lenses must be used. Lenses from 24mm (35mm for F-501/N2020**)
to 105mm are recommended.
● The camera’s autofocus mode is set to Single Servo Autofocus (Set camera’s
focus mode selector to “AF” for F50-series/N50*, and “A” for F-401x/N5005*,
F-401s/N4004s* and F-401/N4004*).
● Focus lock is not employed.
● The SB-22s’s ready-light is on.
●

Exposure compensation in Non-TTL Auto Flash “A” mode
Set a different aperture on the camera or lens aperture ring without changing the flash
mode selector. When shooting a subject containing highly reflective surfaces, set a
larger aperture (smaller f-number). When the background is very dark, or the subject
is in deep shadows, set a smaller aperture (larger f-number).

Exposure compensation in Manual “M” mode
Intentionally change the aperture set on the camera or lens aperture ring. When you
want an overexposed picture, set a wider aperture (smaller f-number) than the one
calculated. For an underexposed picture, use a smaller aperture (larger f-number).

Bounce Flash

Close-Up Flash

Setting the Built-In Wide Flash Adapter

When taking pictures indoors, direct flash often causes harsh, unattractive shadows
on the subject or background. By bouncing the light off the ceiling or walls, you can
soften the shadows and produce more natural-looking portraits.

In TTL Auto Flash TTL mode, when shooting subjects such as flowers or insects closer
than 0.6m (2 ft), use your SB-22s off camera and utilize its built-in wide flash adapter
to take close-up pictures with flash.

The SB-22s comes with a wide flash adapter to increase the angle of coverage to
match a 28mm lens. The guide number is reduced from 28 to 20 (ISO 100, meters)
when the built-in wide flash adapter is used.

The SB-22s’s sync/multiple flash terminal

NOTE

This terminal is provided for connecting the SB-22s to
your camera using Sync Cord SC-11 or SC-15 (for
instance, if your camera does not have an accessory
shoe) or when you want to perform Multiple Flash
photography in Manual M mode with the SB-22s.

TTL multiple flash operation is not possible with Nikon New FM2, FM10, FE10 and
D1 Series cameras. In this case, perform non-TTL or manual multiple flash operation
using the SU-4.

Do not drop the SB-22s or hit it against a hard surface. If dropped, do not touch the
metal portions inside the flash, because they could cause electric shock or injury.
Remove the batteries and take the unit to your local Nikon dealer for repair.
If you detect heat, smoke, or the smell of burning, stop operation immediately and
remove the batteries to prevent the unit from catching on fire or burning. Let the
SB-22s cool down sufficiently before removing batteries. Then take the unit to your
local Nikon dealer for repair.

Batteries are exhausted.

“The Ready-Light”

The SB-22s should not be exposed to rain or saltwater. If water gets inside the SB-22s,
this can cause electric shock or cause the unit to catch on fire. Also never touch the
flash unit with wet hands.

Ready-light takes
longer to light up.

Lithium batteries become hot by repeated use
which activate their safety circuit, thus cutting off
power.

Allow longer recycling time between
flashes or wait until they cool off.
“Notes on Batteries”

Do not operate the SB-22s in an environment containing a combustible gas, as this
may cause the unit to catch on fire or result in an explosion.

Notes on multiple flash operation using a sync or remote cord:

“The Ready-Light”

Using lithium batteries
● Lithium batteries incorporate internal safety switches. When they become hot, their
safety circuits are activated, cutting off power. Battery power will recover if you stop
using them, allowing their temperature to return to normal.

Therefore, you should use f/6 or smaller (larger f-number), such as f/8, f/11 or f/16.

Connect the main flash unit to the camera directly.

Multiple flash operation can be accomplished in two ways: (1) by connecting a Speedlight to
the camera using a sync or remote cord such as TTL Remote Cord SC-17 or (2) by mounting
a Speedlight on the Wireless Slave Flash Controller SU-4 (optional). In both cases, TTL
multiple flash operation is possible with Nikon cameras in the TTL Auto Flash mode.

Battery power is weak.

Handling batteries
● Battery power tends to weaken as the temperature drops. At low temperatures, the
number of flashes decrease and recycling time is longer. NiCd, Ni-MH and lithium
batteries feature greater efficiency at low temperatures, usable as low as –20°C
(–4°F). Alkaline-manganese and zinc-carbon batteries are not recommended as
their performance become noticeably degraded at –10°C (14 °F) for alkalinemanganese and 0°C (32°F) for zinc-carbon batteries.
In either case, battery performance may differ with each brand, due to modification
in specifications or improvement in performance.

Optional Accessories

To eliminate harsh shadows produced by a single flash unit, add additional illumination to
the background, or create special lighting effects not possible with a single flash unit, you
can attach Nikon Speedlights in series.

battery leakage. Also once a month, insert fresh batteries and fire the unit several
times to reform its capacitor and keep the SB-22s in top working order. Finally make
sure the ready-light is on, before turning the power off and removing the batteries.
● Keep the SB-22s away from chemicals such as camphor or naphthalene. Also avoid

When recharging NiCd or Ni-MH batteries, be sure to use the battery charger
specified by the battery maker and read the instructions thoroughly. Do not recharge
NiCd or Ni-MH batteries with their terminals reversed in the charger or before the
batteries have cooled off sufficiently, as this may cause them to leak corrosive liquids,
become hot, catch on fire, or explode.
Non-rechargeable batteries such as zinc-carbon, alkaline-manganese and lithium
batteries should not be charged in a battery charger as they may become hot, catch
on fire, explode, or leak corrosive liquids.
