Flash Sync Mode Features Five flash sync modes are available with the F65/F65D. Set the flash sync mode by rotating the Command Dial while pressing the flash sync mode button ±. ∞: Front-Curtain Sync (Normal Sync) Set the flash sync mode to Front-Curtain Sync for normal flash photography. The camera's shutter speed is automatically set between 1/90 to 1/60 sec. for flash photography in a (AUTO mode) or s (Portrait mode), 1/90 to 1/15 sec. in d (Landscape mode), and to 1/90 sec. in Auto-Multi Program, Aperture-Priority Auto, f (Close-Up mode) or g (Sports Continuous mode). (With optional Speedlight SB-26, SB-25 and SB-24, set the Speedlight's sync mode selector to NORMAL.) ¤: Slow Sync Slow Sync can be used in h Night Scene mode, Auto- Multi Program or Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode. Normally, the camera's shutter speed is automatically set to 1/90 sec. for flash photography. However, for shooting nighttime scenes, Slow Sync uses a slower shutter speed (down to maximum of 30 sec., 1 sec. in h Night Scene mode) to bring out background details using all of the available light. ‹: Rear-Curtain Sync Rear-Curtain Sync can be used in Auto-Multi Program, Shutter-Priority Auto, Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode. Normally, the Speedlight fires at the end of the exposure, turning available light into a stream of light that follows the flash-illuminated moving subject. When Rear-Curtain Sync is set in Auto-Multi Program or Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode, Slow Sync is automatically set. (With an optional Speedlight SB-26, 25 and 24, set the Speedlight's sync mode selector to REAR.) 78 ›: Red-Eye Reduction The Red-Eye Reduction lamp lights for approx. 1 sec. before the flash fires in order to reduce the red-eye effect in photos of people or animals. Red-Eye Reduction can be used in a AUTO mode, Vari-Program (except for h Night Scene), Auto-Multi Program, Shutter-Priority Auto, Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode. (With optional Speedlight SB-80DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27 and SB-26, the Red-Eye Reduction lamp of the Speedlight lights.) ⁄: Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync can be used in h Night Scene mode, Auto- Multi Program or Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode. Red-Eye Reduction and Slow Sync mode are simultaneously set. (With optional Speedlight SB-80DX, SB-28/ 28DX, SB-27 and SB-26, the Red-Eye Reduction lamp of the Speedlight lights.) fl: Flash Cancel Flash Cancel can only be selected in a (AUTO mode) or Vari-Program. Set Flash Cancel when you want to cancel the flash and have the photograph exposed only with the natural light. Flash Cancel cannot be set when the built-in Speedlight is in the up position. Set the Flash Cancel before lightly pressing the shutter release button. (The built-in Speedlight is cancelled but when optional Speedlights are attached, flash is not cancelled.) To cancel Flash Cancel, turn the power switch off or select another exposure mode. NOTE: Flash Sync Modes • In Front-Curtain Sync, shutter speed shifts automatically to 1/90 sec. when the shutter speed is set to faster than 1/90 sec. in Shutter-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode. • When Red-Eye Reduction or Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync is selected, the Red-Eye Reduction lamp lights for approx. 1 sec. before the flash fires. Do not move the camera or let the subject move until the shutter is released. (Red-Eye Reduction is not recommended in shooting situations where shutter release is your top priority.) • With some lenses, light from the Red-Eye Reduction lamp may not reach the subject's eyes. In some cases, the red-eye effect may not be sufficiently reduced due to the location of subject. • With Slow Sync and Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync, keep the camera steady to prevent picture blur since the shutter speed is slow. Use of a tripod is recommended. 79 Speedlight
