Compose the picture, confirm that the ready-light
is on, then shoot.
• When the flash has fired at its maximum output and
underexposure may have occurred, the ready-light on
the SB-800 blinks for approx. 3 sec. To compensate,
use a wider aperture or move closer to the subject
and reshoot.

• For example, for an ISO sensitivity of 100, with the zoom-head position
adjusted to 35mm, and the subject at a distance of 5m (16.4 ft.), selecting
an aperture of f/2 to f/5.6 from the table gives the correct exposure.
