Cord Fastening Hanger @

This hanger secures the sync cord to the bracket to keep it out of the way while shooting .

To use the cord fastening hanger, attach it to the speed- light bracket as shown in the photo, then attach the sync cord to the hook.

Attaching the SW-102

To attach the adapter, align the adapter's mounting notches with the adapter mounting catches on the flash head, push the adapter onto the flash head as shown in the photo, then turn the adapter clockwise as far as it will go.

To remove: Turn the adapter counterclockwise and pull it off.

Wide-Flash Adapter SW-102 ®

Designed specifically for use with this flash unit, the Wide -Flash Adapter SW-102 increases the S8 -102's angle of coverage from that of a 28mm lens (on land and underwater) to that of a 15mm lens (underwater) . When the adapter is attached, the S8-102'sGN is re- duced to 22 on land and 11 underwater (when using ASA/ISO 100 film at " MFULL").

o When the SW-102 is attached, be sure to use the correct shooting situation marks (~for underwater or ~ for on-land shooting) when setting the exposure calculation dial.

oTo prevent overexposure during close-up shooting within approximately O.6m (2ft!, attach the adapter even if using a lens other than the UW-Nikkor 15mm fI2.BN.

o To prevent the loss of the SW-102 and to enable it to be attached quickly, tie one end of a piece of string to its hole and tie the other end to the speedlight.

Target-Light Function

The S8-102'starget-light enables the flash head to be accurately positioned for close-up shooting regardless of whether or not the speedlight is mounted on the joint/arm. When the speedlight'spower switch is turned on and the T-S switch ®l is turned to "T.LlGHT" or "T&S," the target-light will emit a beam of light to indicate the direction of the flash head. To accurately position the flash head, reset it by using the jOint and arm until the beam of light falls on the center of the subject.

oAlthough you can shoot while the target-light is on, it is better to turn the T-S switch to "OFF " or "SLAVE" before shooting to conserve battery power.

o lf the target-light is on when the flash is fired, the target-light will flicker for a few moments. This does not indicate a malfunction.

o Recycling takes slightly longer when the target-light is being used.
