When using Group A cameras (see Table 1), the matrix-controlled TTL fill-in
flash mode is set on the camera or is automatically activated (see operating
instructions of the camera). In this instance there is no setting or display on
the flash unit.
When using Group B cameras (see Table 1), the matrix-controlled TTL fill-in
flash mode is set and indicated on the flash unit.
• Mount the flash unit on the camera.
• Switch on both the flash unit and the camera.
• Lightly touch the camera’s shutter release to induce a data exchange be-
tween flash unit and camera.
• Continue depressing the “Mode” key until “TTL ” flashes on the LC dis-
play.
• The setting becomes immediately effective. The LC display returns to its nor-
mal state after approx. 5 sec.
Deactivating the matrix-controlled TTL fill-in flash mode
• Continue depressing the “Mode” key on the flash unit until “TTL” ( without
the symbol) flashes on the LC display.
• The setting becomes immediately effective. The LC display returns to its nor-
mal state after approx. 5 sec.
4.1.3 3D multi-sensor fill-in flash
This flash mode optimizes a balanced exposure between subject and back-
ground. Prior to exposure a series of almost invisible measuring preflashes
are fired by the flash unit. These are evaluated by the TTL multi-sensor and the
camera’s micro-controller. The camera then adapts TTL flash exposure opti-
mally to the given photographic situation (“multi-sensor fill-in flash”). When
“D-AF-Nikkor” lenses are used, the camera-to-subject distance will be addi-
tionally taken into account when determining the optimal flash output
(“3D multi-sensor fill-in flash mode”).
Different cameras from Group C in Table 1 support the “3D multi-sensor fill-in
flash”.
Some cameras (e.g. F5, F80 and F100) do not support the 3D multi-
sensor fill-in flash mode for SPOT exposure metering. This flash mode
will then either be automatically cancelled or it cannot be activated so
that the normal TTL flash mode will be performed.
Setting the “3D multi-sensor fill-in flash mode” on the flash unit
• Mount the flash unit on the camera.
• Switch on the flash unit and the camera.
• Lightly touch the camera’s shutter release to induce a data exchange be-
tween the flash unit and the camera.
• Continue depressing the “Mode” key until “TTL ” flashes on the LC dis-
play.
• The setting becomes immediately effective. The LC display returns to its nor-
mal state after approx. 5 sec.
When a lens without CPU is used, some cameras will only support the
matrix-controlled fill-in flash mode or the standard TTL flash mode. In
such cases the 3D multi-sensor fill-in flash cannot be activated. The
flash unit’s LC display will then indicate the corresponding display for
the current flash mode.
Deactivating the “3D multi-sensor fill-in flash”
• Continue depressing the “Mode” key on the flash unit until “TTL”
without
symbol “ “ flashes on the LC display.
• The setting becomes immediately effective. The LC display returns to its nor-
mal state after approx. 5 sec.
