~~~~~--------------------------
Thank you for purchasing the Nikon Autofocus 8peedlight

F-801/N8008, F-401s/N4004s),
it
offers you the most advanced
and complete system for automatic flash photography available.
Used with any earlier Nikon 8LR model, it lets you take advan-
tage of TTL auto control and creative features such
as
Strobo-
effect multiple flash exposures,
and
more.
To
get the maximum performance from your new
88

sure to take time to read the instruction manual completely.
It
includes a great deal of important information, including
explanations
on
how to use the newest, most advanced
features.
Even
the most experienced photographers should
thoroughly read this manual. Although the 88-24 controls may
seem familiar, much of its operation
is
different from ordinary
flash units.
We

if you are
in
a
real

ll
be
surprised how easy that

as
easy
as
point-and-shoot.
