Set the controlled aperture (from step 9)*, then read
shooting distance range on the SB-26’s LCD panel.
For instruction, see “Setting Aperture Value (Manual
Adjustment),” pages 28 to 29.
Once aperture is set, indicator bars
/
show the shooting
distance range for that setting.
* This operation is important for reading the appropriate shooting distance from
the indicator bars (step 11); setting a wrong aperture value on the SB-26 does
not affect all TTL Auto Flash operations — a shot will be taken with the aper-
ture set on the camera.

Confirm shooting distance.
Check whether subject falls within range of the shooting
distance indicator bars
/
in the SB-26’s LCD panel. If
not, move closer to subject or select a wide aperture (when
aperture-priority auto or manual exposure mode), then
repeat steps 10 and 11.
