Nikon D7000 user manual 279, SB-800,SB-600,andSU-800 With

_I_ Notes on Optional Flash Units
Refer to the Speedlight manual for detailed instructions. If the flash unit	supports	CLS, refer
to the section on CLS-compatible digital SLR cameras. The D7000 is not	included	in the
"digital SLR" category in the SB-8ODX, SB-28DX, and SB-5ODX manuals.

If an optional flash unit is attached in shooting modes other than _, the flash will fire with every shot, even in modes in which the built-in flash can not be used.

i-TTL flash control can be used at ISO sensitivities between 100 and 6400. At values over

6400, the	desired	results may not be		achieved	at some	ranges or aperture settings.	If the
flash-ready	indicator blinks		for about	three seconds after		a photograph is taken, the	flash has
fired at full	power	and the	photograph	may be	underexposed.

When an SC-series 17, 28, or 29 sync cable is used for off-camera flash photography, correct exposure may not be achieved in i-TTL mode. We recommend that you choose spot

metering to select standard i-TTL flash control. Take a test shot and view the results in the monitor.

In i-TTL, use the flash panel or bounce adapter provided with the flash unit. Do not use other

aanels such as diffusion panels, as this may produce incorrect exposure.

The SB-900, SB-800, SB-700, SB-600, and SB-400 provide red-eye reduction, while the SB-900,

SB-800, SB-700, SB-600, and SU-800 provide
