Nikon Camera N60 - Manual (Page 63)

I Notes on using the optional Speedlight
• Flash sync speed is 1/125 sec. or slower when using an optional Speedlight.
• Available film speeds for TTL Auto Flash are ISO 25 to ISO 800.
• When the Red-Eye Reduction function is used, the Red-Eye Reduction lamp on
the camera body (not on Speedlight unit) illuminates.
• The AF-Assist Illuminator on the Speedlight unit usually emits light. Flowever,
when a non-TTL Auto Flash or manual flash is selected, the AF-Assist
Illuminator on the camera body lights up instead.
• Set the exposure mode to A or M when shooting with the Speedlight in mode
other than TTL Auto Flash.
> In General-Purpose or Auto-Multi Program exposure mode, camera
automatically controls maximum available aperture as follows in relation to the
film speed.
ISO film speed 25 50 100 200 400 800
Maximum available aperture
(built-in Speedlight)
f/2 f/2.4 f/2.8 f/3.3 f/4 f/4.8
Maximum available aperture
(optional Speedlight)
f/2.8 f/3.3 f/4 f/4.8 f/5.6 f/6.7
* 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,
automatically controlled aperture range is from the lens ’ maximum to minimum aperture.
• Attach the optional Sync Terminal Adapter AS-15 when a sync terminal is
needed.
> 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.
