Flash Modes The D800 supports the following flash modes: Flash mode Description This mode is recommended for most situations. In programmed auto and aperture-priority auto modes, shutter speed will automatically be set to values Front-curtain between 1/250 and 1/60 s (1/8,000 to 1/60 s when an optional sync flash unit is used with Auto FP High-Speed Sync; 0 299). Red-eye reduction lamp lights for approximately one second before main flash. Pupils in subject's eyes contract, reducing "red-eye" effect sometimes caused by flash. Owing to one-second shutter-release delay, this Red-eye reduction mode is not recommended with moving subjects or in other situations in which quick shutter response is required. Avoid moving camera while red-eye reduction lamp is lit. Combines red-eye reduction with slow sync. Use for portraits taken against a backdrop of night scenery. Available only in programmed auto and apertureRed-eye priority auto exposure modes. Use of a tripod is reduction with recommended to prevent blurring caused by camera slow sync shake. Flash is combined with shutter speeds as slow as 30 s to capture both subject and background at night or under dim light. This mode is only available in programmed auto and aperture-priority auto exposure modes. Use of Slow sync tripod is recommended to prevent blurring caused by camera shake. In shutter-priority auto or manual exposure l mode, flash fires just before the shutter closes. Use to create effect of a stream of light behind moving objects. In programmed Rear-curtain auto and aperture-priority auto, slow rear-curtain sync is sync used to capture both subject and background. Use of tripod is recommended to prevent blurring caused by camera shake. 183
