CONTROLS IN DETAIL —continued-
With theSB-16B
As soon as the flash unit is turned on, the ready-light on
the flash unit lights up when the flash is ready to fire,
while the ready-light in the camera’s viewfinder blinks in
the following cases:
1) When the shooting mode selector is set at TTL with any
camera other than the Nikon FA, FE2, F-501/N2020,
F-301/N2000, FG, or Nikons-V.
2) When using the FA, FE2, FG or Nikonos-V to perform TTL
automatic flash photography with the camera’s shutter
speed dial set at a mechanical setting (M250, M90 or B).
The B setting on the F-501/N2020 and F-301/N2000
camera is not a mechanical setting; you can use any set
ting on the camera’s shooting mode selector.
3) When using the FA, FE2, F-501/N2020, F-301/N2000, FG
or Nikonos-V to perform TTL automatic flash photography
with a camera film speed setting over the usable range,
without exposure compensation (or when using DX-coded
film with film speed higher than ISO 1000 for the
F-501/N2020 and F-301/N2000). Make sure to use film
within the usable range for TTL flash photography (ISO
25 to 400 with the FA, FE2, FG or Nikonos-V, or ISO 25
to 1000 with the F-501/N2020 and F-301/N2000).
With the FA, the ready-light also blinks when the film
speed setting on the camera is near ISO 12, with or
without exposure compensation in the
+
direction.
4) When the shutter speed setting on the FM2 or FE is im
proper for flash synchronization and the camera’s meter
is on (only in the case of the FE).
