Located at the base of the rewind knob, the accessory

shoe allows direct mounting of the Nikon SB-12 Speed-
light. Three electrical contacts @ provide for synchro­

nization of the flash unit, automatic through-the-lens flash
output control, and ready-light indication in the camera's

viewfinder (via an LED), plus auto switching to the pro­
per synchronization speed of 1/80 sec. Two flash coupling
adapters are available allowing either ISO- or Nikon F2-

type direct-mounting electronic flash units to be attached.
