Compose the picture, make sure 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.
Setting the aperture in Non-TTL auto A flash operation
Set the aperture within the available range as shown in the table below.
Usable flash shooting distance ranges in Non-TTL auto flash operation
*1 With the Nikon Diffusion Dome attached and the wide-flash adapter in place
*2 With the Nikon Diffusion Dome attached
*3 With the wide-flash adapter in place
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 apertures from f/2 to f/5.6
from the table will give the correct exposure.
•To set the aperture on Zoom-Nikkor lenses having variable maximum apertures, refer to
“The flash shooting distance range with zoom lenses having a variable aperture” (p. 57).
