Nikon D80KIT, D80OUTFIT 23: Flash Warning (P, S, A, and M Modes Only), 24: Flash Shutter Speed (P, S, A, and M Modes Only), 25: Auto FP (P, S, A, and M Modes Only)

23: Flash Warning (P, S, A, and M Modes Only)

If On (the default setting) is selected and lighting is poor, the ﬂash- ready light ( ) will ﬂicker in the viewﬁnder when the shutter-releasebutton is pressed halfway to warn that the built-in ﬂash is required. No warning will be displayed if Oﬀ is selected.

24: Flash Shutter Speed (P, S, A, and M Modes Only)

Choose the slowest shutter speed at which the ﬂash will be used in modes P and A (the default setting is 1/60 s). Regardless of the setting chosen, the ﬂash will ﬁre at shutter speeds as slow as 30 s when set to slow sync (41).

25: Auto FP (P, S, A, and M Modes Only)

Select On to activate Auto FP High-Speed Sync when using the optional SB-800, SB-600, or SB-R200 ﬂash units at shutter speeds faster than / s (because the actual shutter speed may be slightly slower than displayed in P and A modes, Auto FP may not always be activated at a shutter speed of / s). Choose to enable ﬁll ﬂash when taking portraits under bright light or when taking photographs at Large aper- tures. Auto FP High-Speed Sync is not available when using the built-in ﬂash. The default setting is Oﬀ.

26: Modeling Flash (P, S, A, and M Modes Only)

If On is selected, the built-in ﬂash and optional SB-800, SB-600, and SB- R200 ﬂash units will emit a modeling ﬂash when the camera depth-of- ﬁeld preview button is pressed (49). The default setting is Oﬀ.

27: Monitor-Oﬀ (All Modes)

Choose how long the monitor remains on when no operations are performed (the default setting is 20 s). Choose a shorter monitor-oﬀ delay for longer battery life. Regardless of the setting chosen, the monitor remains on for four seconds during image review ( 88) and for ten minutes when the camera is powered by an optional EH-5 AC adapter.
