Water Guard for SB-5000 Speedlight

The Nikon WG-AS4 Water Guard is a dedicated protective cover built for the SB-5000 AF Speedlight. It shields the flash unit from rain, splashes and dust so photographers can keep shooting in wet or dirty environments. The accessory is intended for professionals and enthusiasts who regularly use this specific speedlight outdoors.

Hot-shoe seal limits

The guard seals the speedlight's hot-shoe connection to prevent water ingress while the flash is mounted on the camera. It does not waterproof the flash head itself, so direct heavy rain on the emitter or controls can still cause issues. Submersion or high-pressure jets are outside its protective capability.

Durable fitted design

High-quality materials resist wear and tearing during repeated attachment and removal. The precise moulding keeps the guard seated firmly on the shoe, reducing the chance of accidental disconnection during active use. This snug fit maintains full flash functionality without adding bulk that would interfere with camera handling.
