NOTES ON FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY • Use only Nikon Speedlights. Other units may damage the camera's electrical circuits due to incompatible voltage requirements· , electric contact alignment or switch phase. • Not compatible with 250V or higher. • When using a special Speedlight such as a studio strobe system, with a time-lag provision or one with a long flash duration (i.e., Medical-Nikkor 120mm fl4), adjust shutter speed down to 1/ 100 sec. or slower. • Avai lable maximum aperture for each fi lm speed in Auto-Mu lti Program is; ISO film speed 25 1 50 1 100 1 200 1 400 1 800 11000 2.8 1 3.3 1 4 14.8 1 5.6 1 6.7 1 7.1 If you are using a lens with a maximum aperture smaller than listed, of course, the automatically controlled aperture range is from the lens maximum aperture to its minimum aperture(i.e., its entire range.) • For multiple flash photography using the N70, if the electric current in the synchro circuit exceeds a certain level, you may not be able to take a second shot after taking the first shot. Take care that the combined total of the coefficient (numbers shown in parentheses below) for all Speedlights used at any one time does not exceed 20 at 20°C/ 68°F or 13 at 40°C/ 104F S8-28 (1) S8-27 (1) S8-26 (1) S8-25 (1) S8-24 (1) S8-23 (4) S8-22 (6) S8-21 (4) S8-20 (9) S8-19 (2) S8-18 (16) S8-17 (4) S8-16 (4) S8-15 (4) S8-14 (1) S8-12 (1) S8-11 (1) If you are unable to take a second shot, disconnect the master Speedlight from the camera, or tum each of the Speedlights off and on at once. This resets the circuits so you can resume shooting. This also applies when using any non-Nikon studio speedlight system. 10 1

camera's electrical circuits due
to
incompatible voltage
requirements·, electric contact alignment or switch phase.

• When using a special Speedlight such as a studio strobe
system, with a time-lag provision or one with a long flash
duration (i.e., Medical-Nikkor 120mm
fl4),
adjust shutter
speed down
to
1/ 100 sec. or slower.
• Available maximum aperture for each

the

• For multiple flash photography using the N70,
if
the electric
current
in
the synchro circuit exceeds a certain level, you may
not be able
to
take a second shot after taking the first shot.
Take care that the combined total
of
the coefficient (numbers
shown
in

all
Speedlights used at any
one time does not exceed 20 at 20°C/68°F or 13 at
