Accessory shoe The SB-28DX, SB-28, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25, SB-24, SB-23, SB-22s, and SB-29 Speedlights can be attached directly to the accessory shoe without a sync cable. The shoe is equipped with a safety lock that keeps the Speedlight affixed to the camera when Speedlights provided with a locking pin (the SB-28DX, SB-28, SB-27, SB26, SB-25, SB-22s, and SB-29) are attached. Sync terminal A sync cable can be attached to the camera's sync terminal. Flash-ready indicator When the SB-28DX, SB-28, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25, SB-24, SB-23, SB-22s, and SB-29 Speedlights are connected, the flash-ready indicator lights up when the flash is fully charged and ready for use. If the flash-ready indicator blinks for about three seconds after a photograph is taken with a flash set to TTL or external automatic mode, the photograph may be underexposed. Check the photograph in the LCD monitor. If it is underexposed, adjust the focus distance, aperture, or flash range and try again. Note Do not attach a flash to the sync terminal when performing rear-curtain sync flash photography with a Speedlight attached to the accessory shoe.
