Built-in Speedlight and Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash

•The built-in Speedlight offers an angle of coverage of 28mm lens with a guide number of 12/ 40 (ISO 100, m/ft.). When a wide-angle lens of less than 28mm focal length is used in flash photography using the built-in Speed light, the flash may not reach the peripheral area and may result in a dark picture.

•Using CPU Nikkor lenses such as a 0 - or G-type Nikkor lens enables use of Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash.Analyzing the brightness and contrast level derived from Matrix Metering, the Matrix Balanced Fill-Flashensures proper exposure of the main subject and background, while providing adequate flash output to create natural-looking flash photography. See page 76 for details.

Check pOints

•Be sure to remove (or store) the lens hood before flash shooting.

•Some lenses have limitations using the built-in Speedlight and may cause vignetting (a shadow may appear within the frame) (page 85).

•Normal Front- Curtain Sync flash mode is introduced in this section . Various flash sync modes are also available. For details, see page 78.
