1. The camera's flash sync. speed is 1/125 sec. with Anti-Shake on and 1/160 sec. with Anti-Shake
off. Shutter speeds up to this limit can be used.
2. Double the maximum distance when using the camera sensitivity at ISO 400. The maximum
distance cannot exceed 5m or 16.4 ft.

FLASH CONTROL
ADI, pre-flash TTL, and manual flash control are available. Flash
control is changed in section 2 of the recording menu (p. 64). The
flash control used depends on the lens and flash combination.
ADI (Advanced Distance Integration) flash metering - combines
distance information from D-series lenses with information from a
pre-flash exposure. ADI metering is less influenced by subject
reflectance.
The camera automatically switches from ADI metering to pre-flash
TTL when the autofocus system is prevented from focusing. When using the Macro Twin Flash
2400, Marco Ring flash 1200 or a wireless or off-camera flash unit, flash control is set to pre-flash
TTL.
When using the Program Flash 2500(D), switch both the flash unit and camera to ADI metering.
Pre-flash TTL - calculates flash exposure with a pre-flash only. This mode must be used with
close-up filters or filters that reduce the amount of light entering the camera such as neutral density
filters. Pre-flash TTL must be used when a diffuser is attached to the built-in flash, the wide-angle
adapter with the Program flash 3600HS(D), bounce flash with the Program Flash 2500(D), or an
external flash unit.
Manual flash control - fires the flash at full power, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, or 1/16 power. The power ratio is
selected in section 2 of the recording menu (p. 64). See the following page for more on manual flash
and power ratio. Because no pre-flash is used, it can be used to fire slave flash units. Manual flash
cannot be used with wireless.
