Using the SB-800 with COOLPIX digital cameras
For COOLPIX cameras, such as the COOLPIX 5400 and
4500, having an accessory shoe (hot-shoe) or TTL
multiple flash terminal: When more powerful illumination is
required or when performing multiple flash, it is
recommended to connect the SB-800 or another Nikon
Speedlight compatible with TTL auto flash to the COOLPIX.
Auto flash operation is possible by setting the SB-800’s flash
mode to TTL auto flash. The flash output level is controlled
by detecting signals from the camera to determine when to
start and stop firing in sync with the built-in flash, which is
controlled by the camera’s Non-TTL auto flash operation.
• For connection to COOLPIX cameras featuring hot shoe contacts
such as the COOLPIX 5400, attach the Speedlight directly to the
accessory shoe.
• Optional accessories such as the Multi-Flash Bracket Unit
SK-E900 should be used for connection with COOLPIX cameras
having a TTL multiple flash terminal but no hot-shoe contacts.
• For details, see your camera’s instruction manual.
Please note that wireless multiple flash using the
COOLPIX’s built-in flash as a master flash unit and the
SB-800 as a remote flash unit cannot be performed.
