‹: Rear-Curtain Sync
The Speedlight fires at the end of the
exposure, turning available light into a stream
of light that follows the flash-illuminated
moving subject. (With SB-26, 25 and 24, set
the Speedlight’s sync mode selector to
REAR.) When Rear-Curtain Sync is set in
Programmed Auto or Aperture-Priority Auto
exposure mode, Slow Sync is automatically
set.
›: Red-Eye Reduction
The Red-Eye Reduction lamp lights for
approx. 1 sec. before the flash fires in order
to reduce the red-eye effect in photos of
people or animals. (With SB-80DX, SB-28/
28DX, SB-27 or SB-26 only.)
⁄: Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync
Red-Eye Reduction and Slow Sync mode are simultaneously set. (With
SB-80DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27 or SB-26 only.) Set the exposure mode to
Programmed Auto or Aperture-Priority Auto.

Flash Sync Mode Features
Flash
•Five flash sync modes are available with the F100.
Set the flash sync mode by rotating the Main-Command
Dial while pressing the flash sync mode button.
∞: Front-Curtain Sync
Set the flash sync mode to Front-Curtain
Sync for normal flash photography. (With
SB-26, SB-25 and SB-24, set the
Speedlight’s sync mode selector to
NORMAL.)
¤: Slow Sync
Normally, the camera’s shutter speed is
automatically set to 1/60 to 1/250 sec. for
flash photography in Programmed Auto or
Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode.
However, for shooting nighttime scenes,
Slow Sync uses a slower shutter speed
(down to 30 sec.) to bring out background
details using all of the available light.
NOTE: Flash Sync Modes
•When Red-Eye Reduction or Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync is
selected, Red-Eye Reduction lamp lights for approx. 1 sec. before the flash
fires. Do not move the camera or let the subject move until the shutter is
released. (Red-Eye Reduction is not recommended in shooting situations
where shutter release is your top priority.)
•With Slow Sync and Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync, keep the camera
steady to prevent picture blur since the shutter speed is slow. Use of a
tripod is recommended.
•Rear-Curtain Sync cannot be used with a studio flash system since the
correct synchronization cannot be obtained.
