•If corrosive liquids seep from the batteries, avoid touching them. Certain
types of batteries contain strong alkaline liquids that can cause chemical
burns. If the alkaline liquids stick to your skin or clothes, wash immediately
with running water.
•When replacing batteries, replace all four at the same time. Do not mix
battery types or brands and do not use old with new batteries. Otherwise, the
batteries may catch on fire or explode, due the possible leakage of corrosive
liquids.
Usable lenses
The SB-29 is designed for use especially with Micro-Nikkor lenses to realize
the maximum benefits of the flash unit.
•Use the appropriate adapter ring when attaching the SB-29 to the lens.
Note
Other Nikkor lenses having a ring that rotates or moves forward or backward during
AF operation may not autofocus correctly or may damage the lens or camera’s
autofocus mechanism due to the weight of the main unit. Therefore, do not perform
autofocus operation, but use manual focus instead.
Micro-Nikkor lenses providing maximum benefits
— AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D provides autofocus operation when the Adapter Ring UR-3
(optional) is attached to the lens and the SB-29 main unit is attached to the UR-3.
— AF Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8D or 105mm f/2.8 provides autofocus operation when the SB-29
main unit is attached to the lens using the provided ø62mm Adapter Ring (not ø52mm).
— AF Micro-Nikkor 200mm f/4D IF or 200mm f/4 IF provides autofocus operation when the
SB-29 main unit is attached to the lens using the provided ø62mm Adapter Ring.
— AF Zoom Micro-Nikkor 70-180mm f/4.5-5.6D ED provides manual focus operation when the
SB-29 main unit is attached to the lens using the provided ø62mm Adapter Ring. Autofocus
operation is not possible.
— Using the PC Micro-Nikkor 85mm f/2.8D set at the Tilt and/or Shift position is not recommended.
Usable lenses with limited functions
Most Nikkor lenses having a 52mm, 62mm or 72mm filter attachment size
These lenses are subject to vignetting:
— AF Nikkors 20mm f/2.8D, 28mm f/1.4D, and AF Zoom-Nikkor 24-50mm f/3.3-4.5D (at the
24mm focal length)
— AF Zoom-Nikkor 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6D (at focal lengths of 24mm, 28mm, 35mm and 50mm)
— AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-70mm f/3.5-4.5D (around the 28mm focal length),
AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5 (at the 28mm focal length)
— AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5D (at focal lengths of 28mm and 35mm)
— AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6D (at focal lengths of 28mm, 35mm and 50mm),
AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8D (at the 35mm focal length)
Manual Zoom-Nikkor lenses
Because the adapter ring rotates while focusing, adjust the position of the SB-29’s main unit
after focusing.
Lenses attachable but virtually unusable
•AF Nikkor lenses having a ring that rotates during AF operation.
Lenses not attachable
•Most Nikkor lenses not having a 52mm, 62mm or 72mm filter attachment size

For your information
TTL Auto Flash mode (Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash or Standard TTL Flash) is automatically
determined, according to your camera and lens combinations. You cannot select an appropriate
flash mode on the SB-29. For details on available flash modes, read each camera’s instruction
manual.
Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash
Based on the ambient light, the flash output is automatically controlled to keep both subject and
background correctly exposed using the camera’s Matrix Metering System.
Standard TTL Flash
Flash output is manually controlled to emphasize the main subject against the background. The
main subject is correctly exposed regardless of the brightness of the background.
Installing the batteries
Install four penlight batteries following the + and – symbols inside the
battery chamber. Reattach the battery chamber lid by aligning the indices
on the lid and the flash unit and sliding it up as it will go.

•Macro Adapter Ring BR-2A, Auto Adapter Ring BR-6
•Auto Adapter Ring BR-5 is also necessary between Macro Adapter Ring BR-2A and
the lens when using a lens having a 62mm filter attachment size.
•Because Auto Adapter Ring BR-6 features automatic diaphragm control, using the
optional Double Release AR-10 or Double Cable Releases AR-7/AR-4 speeds up
shooting operation.
When attaching the lens directly to the camera body
•Set the lens focus ring to (infinity) and move the camera body back and forth
to focus.
When using Nikon Bellows Focusing Attachment PB-6
Setting the controller and main unit
Check these settings on the SB-29 before shooting.
Flash mode
Three flash modes —TTL Auto Flash, Manual (Full) Flash or Manual (M1/4) Flash—are
available using the flash mode selector. The TTL Auto Flash mode is recommended,
because determining the proper exposure in close-up flash is very difficult.
Light reducer
By using the built-in light reducer, intentional shadows can be created by changing the
brightness of the right or left flash module (or upper or lower when the unit is positioned
vertically).
•The output of the flash module can be reduced to approx. 1/4 by using the built-in light reducer.
•Turn the light reducer setting dial all the way until it click stops.
•Be sure to set both flash modules to fire when using the light reducer.
Setting both flash modules or either flash module
The SB-29 is equipped with two flash modules. Using the flash module selector, you have
three options: 1) To fire both flash modules simultaneously; 2) To fire the left module only;
or 3) To fire the right module only. This is convenient for taking close-up flash photographs
when you want to emphasize the contrast between the highlight and shadow areas.

Major features of the SB-29
The SB-29 consists of the main unit and controller. Attach the main unit to the
lens or to the front of the controller to take effective close-up flash
photographs. With the SB-29, you can shoot ultra close-up photographs of
flowers, insects or small objects in the TTL auto flash mode.
The main unit can be attached to the lens
to take close-up flash photographs.
•The main unit can be rotated while pressing the
adapter ring mounting buttons lightly, allowing you to
set the flash modules at any position to match subject
conditions or your creative preferences.
•Close-up flash photography with a lens mounted in the
reverse position is possible. (Optional Adapter Rings
are required.)
The main unit can be attached to the
controller to take close-up flash
photographs.
As shown in the illustration, the main unit can be rotated
up to 90°. The position of the flash modules can be set
vertically or horizontally to match the subject or your
individual preferences.
Manual flash operation in two (full and 1/4)
flash output levels is possible.
The brightness of the flash module can be
reduced to approx. 1/4 flash output by
using the built-in light reducer.
•Be sure to set both flash modules to fire.
•Various illumination patterns where the brightness is
different on the right and left sides of the subject is
possible when the subject is 0.2m (0.7 ft.) or less from
the main unit.
Firing both flash modules at the same time
or firing either independently can be
selected.
Four AA-type penlight batteries of any of these types are usable:
(1) Zinc-carbon (1.5V), (2) alkaline-manganese (1.5V), (3) lithium (1.5V),
(4) rechargeable NiCd (1.2V) and (5) Ni-MH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) (1.2V).

Note
With certain lenses, the shadows cast by the front of the lens may appear on the
subject if both modules are fired when set vertically. In this case, use the upper flash
module only.
Using the modeling illuminator, you can also check if there are shadows cast by the
front of the lens before taking pictures. Refer to “Checking the lighting effects before
shooting”.
However, when looking through the viewfinder of cameras with less than 100% frame
coverage, you may not see the shadows cast by the front of the lens even when using
the modeling illuminator, because the area appearing on the film is greater than the
viewfinder image.
