Nikon R1C1 Wireless Close-Up System

The Nikon R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System provides a dedicated macro lighting kit for Nikon i-TTL SLR users. It includes two SB-R200 remote speedlights and an SU-800 wireless commander for off-camera flash control. Photographers seeking flexible, shadowless illumination for close-up subjects will find this system integrates directly with Nikon Creative Lighting System.

Guide Number 66 at 24mm with Two Flashes

Combined output reaches a guide number of 66 feet or 20 metres at the 24mm setting using both SB-R200 units. This level comfortably lights small subjects at close working distances and allows stopped-down apertures for depth of field. Output diminishes when diffusers are added or when a single flash is used, limiting reach for larger macro scenes or greater subject distances.

Upgrade From Built-In Pop-Up Flash

The system replaces reliance on a camera built-in flash or basic commander modes for macro work. The jump is worth it when you need independent positioning of two remote heads, wireless i-TTL ratios, and the SU-800 commander for bodies lacking a built-in flash. It does not suit photographers who require high-power output for distant subjects or continuous lighting for video capture.
