ADVANCED PHOTOGRAPHY—COMPATIBLE SPEEDLIGHTS
Use Nikon Speedlights only. Using another make of flash could damage the internal circuitry of
the camera or flash. Before using a Nikon Speedlight not included in the list of compatible
Speedlights, contact a Nikon-authorized service representative for more information.

When flash exposure compensation is used, appears in the viewfinder display, but the
amount of compensation is not displayed.
If the Speedlight is set at a distance from the camera using the SC-17 sync cord, correct
exposure may not be achieved at D-TTL settings other than standard D-TTL. We recommend
that you use standard D-TTL. When using standard D-TTL, take a test shot and view the
results in the monitor.
When using D-TTL flash control, use the flash panel provided with your Speedlight. Do not use
another type of flash panel, such as a diffusion panel, as this may introduce error into camera-
internal calculations, resulting in inappropriate flash exposure.
When the flash sync mode is set to slow sync or slow sync with red-eye reduction, select
programmed auto or aperture-priority auto exposure.
The shutter speeds and apertures that can be used with the SB-80DX, SB-50DX, and SB-28DX
are shown below.
