C Notes About i-TTL Flash
• The monitor preflashes are fired to measure the reflecting light from a subject in
order to adjust the flash output of the Speedlight.
- i-TTL-BL flash: The flash output is adjusted with consideration for the balance
between a subject and its background light.
- Standard i-TTL flash: The flash output is adjusted to achieve proper exposure
according to the brightness of the main subject without consideration of the
background light. This setting is optimal for taking images with emphasis on the
main subjects.
• When shooting using i-TTL flash, set the flash control mode of the Speedlight to i-
TTL before taking images (except SB-400).
• When shooting using SB-700 or SB-400 and if Metering of the camera is set to
Matrix or Center-weighted, i-TTL-BL flash is set. If Metering of the camera is set
to Spot, Standard i-TTL flash is set.
C Notes About Speedlights
• This camera does not support Auto FP High-Speed Sync, FV lock, red-eye reduction
or AF-assist for multi-area AF when using Speedlights.
• The power zoom function can be used with Speedlights SB-910, SB-900, SB-800,
SB-700 or SB-600 and the zoom head position is automatically set depending on
the focal length of the lens.
• When using Speedlights SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700 or SB-600, the edges of
images shot at ranges less than 2 m (6 ft 7 in.) on the wide-angle zoom position
may appear dark. In such cases, use the wide panel.
• When set to STBY (standby), the Speedlight turns on and off at the same time as
the camera. Confirm on the Speedlight that the Ready-light is on.
• Advanced Wireless Lighting shooting can be performed by setting SB-910, SB-900,
SB-800 or SB-700 attached to this camera to master flash, or by setting SU-800 to
the Commander mode, and setting SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700, SB-600 or
SB-R200 to remote flash (when shooting with this camera, the remote flash setting
is only applicable to Group A).
• Advanced Wireless Lighting shooting can be performed also by using this camera's
bulit-in flash in Commander mode (only applicable to Group A and fixed at 3 CH)
(A60, 75, E59).
• Refer to the documentation provided with your Speedlight for more information.
