*1 With Spot Metering, setting exposure to Manual automatically changes the flash mode to Standard TTL with
Speedlights other than SB-80DX, 28/28DX, 27, 26, 25 and 24 that are equipped with TTL Auto Flash.
*2 Wireless Slave Flash can be performed with the SB-80DX and SB-26. Shutter speed is automatically controlled
to slower than 1/200 sec. when the Wireless Slave Flash selector is set to D.
*3 With the SB-29s/29 and SB-21B, autofocus can only be used when an AF Micro-Nikkor (60mm, 105mm,
200mm and 70-180mm) is attached.
*4 TTL auto flash is possible with TTL Remote Cord SC-23.
In Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode, attach SU-2 to SC-13 with SB-11 and SB-14 or attach SU-3
to SC-13 with SB-140.
SC-11 or SC-15 can also be used; however, the ready-light does not appear in the viewfinder and the shutter
speed does not change automatically.
*5 Ultraviolet and infrared photography can be performed only when SB-140 is set to M.
• Notes on using the optional Speedlight
• See your Speedlight manual for details. If the camera groups are defined in the
manual of the Speedlight with TTL auto flash, see the section for camera group
[
.
• With the SB-26, 25 or 24, flash sync mode set on the Speedlight overrides the
setting on the camera body.
• Flash sync speed is 1/250 sec. or slower when using an optional Speedlight.
(Set the shutter speed to 1/125 sec. or slower with Medical-Nikkor 120mm f/4.)
• Available film speeds for TTL auto flash are ISO 25 to ISO 1000.
• The AF-Assist Illuminator does not emit light when the focus area is not set to
center.
• In Programmed Auto exposure mode, the camera automatically controls the
maximum available aperture as follows in relation to the film speed:
ISO film speed 25 50 100 200 400 800 1000
Maximum available aperture 2.8 3.3 4 4.8 5.6 6.7 7.1
* When film speed increases by one step, the maximum available aperture is
stopped down by 1/2 f/stop. If you are using a lens with a maximum aperture
smaller than that listed above, the automatically controlled aperture range is
from the lens’ maximum to minimum aperture.
• When flash exposure compensation is set, = appears in the viewfinder without
the compensation value.
NOTE: Flash attachments made by manufacturers other than Nikon
Use only Nikon Speedlights. Other units may damage the camera’s electrical
circuit due to incompatible voltage requirements (not compatible with 250V
or higher), electric contact alignment or switch phase.
