CENTER-WEIGHTED/SPOT FILL- FLASH

If you are using a lens without CPU (a lens other than AF Nikkor and AI-P-Nikkor), in automatic exposure mode, Center- Weighted Fill-Flash with Center-Weighted Metering and Spot Fill-Flash with Spot Metering are performed as Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash. Flash output is properly compensated to produce a natural fill-flash effect.

STANDARD TTL FLASH

In Manual exposure mode, standard TIL Flash will be performed, regardless of metering system and lens in use. To cancel Monitor Pre-flashes, perform Standard TIL Flash by setting exposure mode to Manual.

Using 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash with two subjects at greatly different distances.

If you first focus on one subject and then, with the focus locked, recompose the shot on another subject, it may result in an incorrect exposure. This is because the focusing distance for the first subject only was sent to the camera'scomputer. To correct this, refocus on the second subject or cancel the 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash to activate the Standard TIL Flash.

Important!

Do not touch the flash when it is firing; normal operation can cause it to heat up.

Never fire the flash more than 20 consecutive times at intervals of 5 sec. or shorter. This may impair flash performance. If you fire the flash 20 consecutive times at intervals of 5 sec. or shorter, let the flash rest at least 10 minutes before firing again.

When you continuously fire the flash, the camera's handgrip may become hot; this is normal. Continuous firing will result in a longer interval before the ready-light lights up because it takes longer for the flash to recharge automatically.

When the built-in flash is activated, an accessory Speedlight will not fire. When using a Speedlight, keep the built-in flash in the locked down position.

For usable lenses with built-in flash, see page 96.
