F80/F80D/F80S's advanced flash
technology by using the built-in Speedlight
or an optional AF Speedlight such as the
SB-28, SB-27 or SB-26. With the
F80/F80D/F80S system you'll discover the
benefits of flash for more picture-taking
situations than ever. Make fill-flash a
standard part of your photography. Brighten
dull scenes and erase harsh shadows for
beautiful portraits. With the F80/F80D/F80S
system's automatic operation, you can take flash pictures like never before.
About Flash Photography
•Built-in Speedlight
This camera is equipped with a built-in Speedlight that provides an angle of
coverage for a 28mm lens with a guide number of 12 (IS0100, m). TTL Auto
Flash modes such as 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash and Multi-Sensor
Balanced Fill-Flash are available and ensure proper exposure of the main
subject and background, while providing adequate flash output to create
natural-looking flash photography. In addition to shooting in dim light, the flash
can be used in daylight to reduce shadows on the main subject or to put
catchlights in your subject's eyes. Five flash sync modes—Front-Curtain Sync
(Normal Sync), Slow Sync, Rear-Curtain Sync, Red-Eye Reduction and Red-Eye
Reduction with Slow Sync—are available with this camera.
• See below for the TTL Flash modes, page 82 for using the built-in Speedlight
and page 80 for the flash sync modes.
•The following TTL Auto Flash modes are available depending on the
type of lens used.
