Notes on using the optional Speedlight
• See your Speedlight manual for details. If the camera groups are defined in the
manual of the Speedlight with TTL auto flash, see the section for camera group
[
.
• With the SB-26, 25 or 24, flash sync mode set on the Speedlight overrides the
setting on the camera body.
• Flash sync speed is 1/250 sec. or slower when using an optional Speedlight.
(Set the shutter speed to 1/125 sec. or slower with Medical-Nikkor 120mm f/4.)
• Available film speeds for TTL auto flash are ISO 25 to ISO 1000.
• The AF-Assist Illuminator does not emit light when the focus area is not set to
center.
• In Programmed Auto exposure mode, the camera automatically controls the
maximum available aperture as follows in relation to the film speed:
ISO film speed
25
50
100
200
400
800
1000
Maximum available aperture
2.8
3.3
4
4.8
5.6
6.7
7.1
* When film speed increases by one step, the maximum available aperture is
stopped down by 1/2 f/stop. If you are using a lens with a maximum aperture
smaller than that listed above, the automatically controlled aperture range is
from the lens’ maximum to minimum aperture.
• When flash exposure compensation is set,
=
appears in the viewfinder without
the compensation value.
NOTE: Flash attachments made by manufacturers other than Nikon
Use only Nikon Speedlights. Other units may damage the camera’s electrical
circuit due to incompatible voltage requirements (not compatible with 250V
or higher), electric contact alignment or switch phase.
