Non-CLS supporting Speedlight • Available flash mode with non-CLS supporting Speedlight When a Nikon Speedlight other than SB-800/SB-600 is attached and set to TTL mode, the following TTL Auto Flash modes are available depending on the type of lens used. Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash/3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash (Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash with TTL Multi Sensor) Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash with TTL Multi Sensor can be performed with a combination of F6 camera, CPU lens and Nikon TTL AF Speedlight. In this flash mode, just after you press the shutter release button and before the shutter is activated, the Speedlight with Monitor Preflash function (SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26 and SB-25) will fire a series of imperceptible preflashes that are detected by the F6's five-segment TTL Multi Sensor, then analyzed for brightness and contrast. Furthermore, when a D- or G-type AF Nikkor lens is attached, it integrates Distance Information from the lens with other exposure control information, automatically compensating the flash output level so that flash output and ambient light are balanced (3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash). With Speedlights that do not have the Monitor Preflash feature, or with a non-G/Dtype lens or a non-CPU lens with non-CPU lens data specified, Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash (without data from the Monitor Preflash and Distance Information) is performed. Select a metering system on the F6 other than Spot Metering. (With Spot Metering, the Flash mode automatically switches to Standard TTL flash.) Standard TTL Flash Can be set on SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25 or SB-24 Speedlight. With other Speedlights, Standard TTL Flash is set automatically when the camera is set to Manual exposure mode. In Standard TTL Flash, flash output is adjusted to ensure the main subject is correctly exposed; background brightness is not taken into account. Recommended for shots in which the main subject is emphasized at the expense of background details, or when exposure compensation is used. Standard TTL flash is activated automatically when Spot metering is selected. 154

Available flash mode with non-CLS supporting Speedlight
When a Nikon Speedlight other than SB-800/SB-600 is attached and set to
TTL mode, the following TTL Auto Flash modes are available depending on
the type of lens used.
Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash/3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash
(Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash with TTL Multi Sensor)
Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash with TTL Multi Sensor can be performed with a
combination of F6 camera, CPU lens and Nikon TTL AF Speedlight. In this flash mode,
just after you press the shutter release button and before the shutter is activated, the
Speedlight with Monitor Preflash function (SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27,
SB-26 and SB-25) will fire a series of imperceptible preflashes that are detected by
the F6
’
s five-segment TTL Multi Sensor, then analyzed for brightness and contrast.
Furthermore, when a D- or G-type AF Nikkor lens is attached, it integrates Distance
Information from the lens with other exposure control information, automatically
compensating the flash output level so that flash output and ambient light are
balanced (3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash).
With Speedlights that do not have the Monitor Preflash feature, or with a non-G/D-
type lens or a non-CPU lens with non-CPU lens data specified, Multi-Sensor Balanced
Fill-Flash (without data from the Monitor Preflash and Distance Information) is
performed. Select a metering system on the F6 other than Spot Metering. (With Spot
Metering, the Flash mode automatically switches to Standard TTL flash.)
Standard TTL Flash
Can be set on SB-80DX, SB-50DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB-25 or SB-24
Speedlight. With other Speedlights, Standard TTL Flash is set automatically when the
camera is set to Manual exposure mode. In Standard TTL Flash, flash output is
adjusted to ensure the main subject is correctly exposed; background brightness is
not taken into account. Recommended for shots in which the main subject is
emphasized at the expense of background details, or when exposure compensation is
used. Standard TTL flash is activated automatically when Spot metering is selected.
