Notes About the Built-in Flash
The built-in flash of this camera cannot be used when a Speedlight is attached.
Do not raise the built-in flash when a Speedlight is attached. Doing so may cause it to hit the
Speedlight, resulting in product damage.
B
Use Only Nikon Flash Accessories
Use only Nikon Speedlights. Flash units of other manufacturers (with voltages over 250 V
applied to the camera’s X sync contact, or causing short circuit at the accessory shoe
contact) could not only prevent normal operation, but damage the sync circuitry of the
camera or flash.
