JFlash Exp. Comp.

Flash compensation is used to adjust flash output by ±2.0 EV in increments of 1/3 EV, changing the brightness of the main subject relative to the background. When the Speedlight SB-400, SB-600, or SB-800 flash unit (available separately from Nikon) (A139) is mounted on the camera, flash output for the flash (available separately from Nikon) is adjusted.

-0.3 - -2.0

Flash output is reduced from -0.3 to -2.0 EV, in increments of 1/3 EV, to prevent unwanted highlights or reflections.

0 (default setting)

Flash output is not adjusted.

+0.3 - +2.0

Flash output is increased from +0.3 to +2.0 EV, in increments of 1/3 EV, to make the main subject of the frame appear brighter.

At settings other than [0], the icon for the current setting is displayed in the monitor during shooting (A6).

KFlash Control

Specify whether or not the built-in flash fires when a flash unit (available separately from Nikon) mounted on the camera’s accessory shoe is not used (A139).

Auto (default setting)

When a flash (available separately from Nikon) is mounted, the flash fires. When there is no flash mounted on the accessory shoe, the built-in flash fires.

Built-in off

The built-in flash is disabled.
