Conducting continuous flash photography at 8 fps using the SD-9 with
8 batteries or SD-8A with 6 batteries can cause the front part of the
flash
head to heat up. In flash photography, attaching the SD-9 or SD-8A to
the camera may cause some lineal noise to appear in the image. If this is
the case, set a lower ISO sensitivity or detach the SD-9 or SD-8A from the
camera and use separately.
