3 Setting the flash mode on the SU-800.

Press the [MODE] button to set the flash mode to TTL or M (manual).

“TTL” is preset when shipped from the factory.

The same flash mode is set for both Groups A and B.

4 Setting the SB-R200 to fire or cancel.

Press the [AB] select button to set flash firing/ canceled for group A or B.

The flash-canceled group name disappears.

In dual-light close-up flash operation, you cannot cancel flash firing for Groups A and B.

Once set to flash canceled mode, flash output-level ratio in TTL mode becomes invalid, while the flash output level compensation values are retained.

Even if the flash mode is set to flash canceled, flash output level compensation values in the M (manual) mode are retained.
