Once aperture is set, indicator bars
distance range for that setting.
* This operation is important for reading the appropriate shooting distance from
the indicator bars (step 11); setting a wrong aperture value on the SB-25 does
not affect all TTL Auto Flash operations — a shot will be taken with the aper-
ture set on the camera.
Mode: For F-601/N6006 and F-601
11 Confirm shooting distance.
Check whether subject falls within range of the shooting
distance indicator bars
show the shooting not, move closer to subject or select a wide aperture (when
aperture-priority auto or manual exposure mode), then
repeat steps 10 and 11.
