Ready-light ®

When the 8B-28, 8B-27, 8B-26, 8B-25, 8B-24, 8B-22, 8B-20, 8B-19 or 8B-16B is attached to the FM2, the built-in LED ready-light tells you when the speedlight is recycled and ready to fire or when the shutter speed is set outside sync range, without your having to remove your eye from the viewfinder. Before you shoot, make sure the ready-light is on. The moment the shutter is released , the speedlight will fire and the ready- light will go out.

If the shutter speed is set between 1/500 sec. and 1/4000 sec., the ready-light will blink when the speedlight is fully charged , to warn you that the shutter speed is outside sync range .

For ready-light availability with speedlights other than the 8B-28, 8B-27, 8B-26, 8B-25, 8B-24, 8B-22, 8B-20, 8B-19 and 8B-16B, refer to page 35.
