ISO sensitivity (SB-800/SB-600)

When used with optional SB-800 and SB-600 Speedlights, i-TTL flash control can adjust for ISO sensitivities between 100 and 1600. It may not be able to adjust flash level appropriately for values over 1600. When [ON] is set for the [ISO AUTO CONTROL] under [ISO AUTO CONTROL] under [S EXPOSURE] in the [SET UP] menu (➝p.154), ISO sensitivity will automatically be adjusted as required for optimal flash output. This may result in foreground subjects being underexposed in flash photographs taken at slow shutter speeds, in daylight, or against a bright background. In these cases, choose a flash mode other than slow sync or select mode or and choose a larger aperture.

ZThe accessory shoe

The S5 Pro is equipped with an accessory shoe that allows SB-series Speedlights, including the SB-800, 600, 80DX, 50DX, 28DX, 28, 27, 23, 22S, and 29S to be mounted directly on the camera without a sync cable. The accessory shoe is equipped with a safety lock for Speedlights with a locking pin, such as the SB-800 and SB-600.

CAUTION

Attach the accessory shoe cover when no external flash is attached on the accessory shoe.

ZThe sync terminal

A sync cable can be connected to the sync terminal as required. Do not connect another Speedlight via a sync cable when performing rear-curtain sync flash photography with an SB-series Speedlights such as the 800, 600, 80DX, 28DX, 28, 50DX, 27, 23, 22s, or 29s mounted on the camera accessory shoe.
