Technical Notes
The Built-in Flash
The built-in flash can be used with lenses with focal lengths of
16–300 mm, although in some cases the flash may be unable to
entirely light the subject at some ranges or focal lengths due to
shadows cast by the lens.
•
Peripheral illumination may drop at focal lengths under
16 mm.
•
The NIKKOR Z 14–30mm f/4 S casts shadows in photos taken
with the built-in flash at all focal lengths. Other lenses that
restrict use of the built-in flash are as follows:
Lens
Minimum shadow-free focal length/
minimum shadow-free focus distance
NIKKOR Z DX 16–50mm f/3.5–6.3 VR
16 mm/0.6 m (2 ft)
24–50 mm/No vignetting
NIKKOR Z 24–70mm f/2.8 S
70 mm/1 m (3 ft 4 in.)

Lenses that block the subject’s view of the red-eye reduction lamp may
interfere with red-eye reduction.
