Page 19

After you take the shot, watch the ready-light inside the camera 's view- finder or the one on the 88 -16. After a short while, it will light up again to tell you the flash unit is recycled and ready to fire for the next shot.

Note: If the flash unit fired at its maximum output, the ready-light blinks as a warning im - medialely following the shot to indicate there still may be underexposure. In this case. check the combination of shooting distance and aperture setected. and use a wider aperture or move closer to the subject If necessary. This warning is also provided in the viewfinder of all Nikon cameras having a built -in ready-light (except F2-series cameras).

20. Turn off the flash unit.

To conserve battery power between shooting sessions, slide the power switch to the left.
