Compose a picture and shoot with flash

Confirm that the red ready-lights are on then
release the shutter.

• For details on test firing, refer to page 88.

v

If the red ready-light blinks immediately after shooting

In TTL mode, when the flash has fired at its maximum output
and underexposure may have occurred, the red ready-light on
that flash unit will blink for approx. 3 sec. (The ready-lights on
the SU-800 and in the camera’s viewfinder do not blink.)
To compensate, move closer to the subject, set a higher ISO
sensitivity or use a wider aperture and reshoot.
• When Speedlight SB-910, SB-900, SB-800, SB-700 or

SB-600 is used as a remote flash unit, the red ready-light on
the Speedlight in use blinks for 3 sec. after firing. The
amount of underexposure is displayed. (For more details,
read your Speedlight user's manual.)

u

In the M (manual) mode, set manual flash output level.

• Manual flash output level can be set separately for each

group.

• Press the [SEL](FUNC.) button to display the manual flash

output level (blinking). Press the [

W

] or [

X

] button to

increase or decrease the value. Press the [SEL](FUNC.)
button once again and the value will stop blinking. The last
value to blink is the one that has been set automatically.

• Manual flash output level can be set in 1 step increment or

decrement from M1/1 to M1/128 output. (M1/1 is preset
when shipped from the factory.)

• Continuously pressing the [

W

] or [

X

] button quickly

increases or decreases the value.

• The value blinks during adjustment and stops after blinking

six times unless an adjustment is made. The last value to
blink is the one that has been set automatically.
