Custom Setting e1: Flash Sync Speed

This option controls flash sync speed. Options range from ½50 s (1/250, the default setting) and

1/60 s (1/60). To enable auto FP high-speed sync when using an SB-800 Speedlight, select 1/250 (FP auto) (if the SB-800 is not attached when this option is selected, flash sync speed will be set to ½50 s). When the camera shows a shutter speed of ½50 s in exposure mode P or A, Auto FP High- Speed Sync will be activated if the actual shutter speed is faster than ½50 s.
