Camera groups and available flash modes
In this manual, Nikon SLR cameras are divided into nine groups: cameras
compatible with CLS*, digital SLRs not compatible with CLS*, and cameras in
Groups I to VII unless otherwise noted. First, consult the camera group table to
see which group your camera belongs to. Then as you read the manual, you will
find specific information on how to use the SB-800 with your particular camera.
