Accessory shoe/Sync terminal/Ready-light

Accessory shoe

An optional Speedlight such as the SB-800, SB-600, SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-30, SB-29s/29, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25, SB-24, SB-23 or SB-22s can be attached directly to the accessory shoe of the F6 without a cord. This accessory shoe is equipped with a safety lock that prevents accidental drop when a Speedlight having a safety-lock pin (SB-800, SB-600, SB-80DX, SB-30, SB-29s/29, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25 or SB-22s) is attached.

Sync terminal

To use a Speedlight that requires a sync cord, attach one end of the sync cord to the sync terminal.

When performing rear-curtain sync with a Speedlight such as SB-800, SB-600, SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25 or SB-24 attached to the F6’s accessory shoe, do not attach a additional Speedlight via the sync terminal.

Ready-light

When using a Speedlight such as the SB-800, SB-600, SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-30, SB-29s/29, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25, SB-24, SB-23 or SB-22s, the ready- light lights up when the Speedlight is fully charged and ready to fire.

If the ready-light blinks approx. 3 sec. after full flash output (when the Speedlight is set to TTL, Auto Aperture flash or Non-TTL Auto flash mode), underexposure may have occurred. Check the focus distance, aperture or flash shooting distance range and shoot again.
