Flash modes available with Nikon Speedlights

I

With Nikon Speedlights SB-26 and SB-25 the following flash

modes are available.

■ Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash

The camera's Matrix Metering System determines correct exposure

and flash illumination is automatically balanced against the scene's
ambient light. This flash mode is recommended for most common

flash shooting situations when the subject is backlit in the daytime or
for a dark subject with a bright background at night.

■standard TTL Flash

Standard TTL flash is recommended to give more illumination to the

main subject, resulting in a bright subject against a dark
background. The flash output is compensated manually.

■ Non-TTL Auto Flash

The flash automatically fires after a flash illumination reading is
taken through the light sensor on the Speedlight, instead of through
the lens.

■ Manual Flash

You can select the flash power output and set the aperture

according to the flash-to-subject distance to obtain well exposed

results.

■ Rear-curtain sync flash

The flash fires at a later stage in the exposure, just before the rear

shutter curtain starts to close to give a natural lighting effect. This is
effective for highlighting the movement of subjects at a slow shutter
speed.
