Sync Terminal

External Nikon Speedlights can be accommodated by using the optional Multi-Flash Bracket Unit SK-E900.

The following Nikon optional Speedlights can be used: SB-28DX, SB-28, SB- 26, SB-25, SB-24, SB-22s and SB-22. Please contact an authorized Nikon dealer or service center about using other Nikon Speedlights.

In Macro close-up mode, it is recommend that you take trial shots and confirm that the image in the Monitor is correctly exposed.

Set the Zoom-head position wider than 28mm.

The Power Zoom function of Speedlights does not function when attached to the COOLPIX995. Please set the Zoom-head position manually.

The AF assist illuminator of the Speedlight does not illuminate.

For the basic functions and operations of Multi-Flash Bracket Unit SK-E900 and optional Speedlights, please refer to the instruction manuals supplied with each accessory.

Check point

With the Speedlight Opt. > Int Flash Off in Shooting SET-UP menu , it is possible to set the built-in Speedlight so that it does not fire, and to fire the external Speedlight only (p.133).

Note: Flash Units Made by Manufacturers other than Nikon

Use only Nikon Speedlights. Other units may damage the camera's electrical circuitry due to incompatible voltage requirements, electric contact alignment or switching phase.

Note: Activating an Optional Speedlight

When using an optional Speedlight, make sure to raise the built-in Speedlight to operational position (even if the Int Flash Off setting is set on the built-in Speedlight) to ensure that the flash sync sensor is activated.
