1 The SB-26 can be set to slave mode for wireless slave
flash photography. When the wireless slave selector
is set to D, shutter speed will be set to under
1 /
125
s.
2 When an SB-27 is mounted on the D100, the flash
mode is automatically set to TTL, and the shutter-
release will be disabled. Set the SB-27 to A (non-TTL
auto flash).
3 Manual mode only. Use is not recommended.
The following Speedlights can be used in non-TTL auto and manual modes. If
they are set to TTL, the camera shutter-release button will lock and no photo-
graphs can be taken.

4 Autofocus is only available with AF-Micro lenses
(60 mm, 105 mm, 200 mm, or 70–180 mm).
5 When using the SB-11 or SB-14 in A or M mode, use
the SU-2 with an SC-13 sync cable. Although SC-11
and SC-15 sync cables can be used, the flash-ready
indicator will not appear in the viewfinder and shut-
ter speed will not be adjusted automatically.
Notes on Optional Speedlights
The shutter will synchronize with an external flash at speeds of 1 /
180
s or slower.
D-TTL flash control can be used to adjust flash output at sensitivity (ISO equivalency)
settings between 200 and 1600. At settings of HI-1 and HI-2, the desired results may
not be achieved at some ranges or aperture settings.
If rear-curtain sync is selected with SB-series 26, 25, or 24 Speedlights, this setting takes
priority over the flash-sync mode selected with the camera, except in the cases of red-
eye reduction and slow sync with red-eye reduction.
