D Using FV Lock with the Built-in Flash FV lock is only available with the built-in flash when TTL (the default option) is selected for Custom Setting e3 (Flash cntrl for built-in flash, pg. 309). A Using FV Lock with Optional Flash Units FV lock is also available with SB-900, SB-800, SB-600, SB-400, and SB-R200 flash units (available separately). Set the optional flash to TTL mode (the SB-900 and SB-800 can also be used in AA mode; see the flash manual for details).
