Optional Flash Units (Speedlights)
The camera supports the Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS) and can be used with
CLS-compatible flash units.
Optional flash units can be attached directly to the
camera accessory shoe as described below.
The accessory shoe is equipped with a
safety lock for flash units with a locking pin.
1 Remove the accessory shoe cover.
2 Mount the flash unit on the accessory shoe.
See the manual provided with the flash unit for details.
The built-in flash will not fire when an optional flash unit is
attached.
A The AS-15 Sync Terminal Adapter
When the AS-15 sync terminal adapter (available separately) is mounted on the camera
accessory shoe, flash accessories can be connected via a sync terminal.
D Use Only Nikon Flash Accessories
Use only Nikon flash units.
Negative voltages or voltages over 250 V applied to the accessory
shoe could not only prevent normal operation, but damage the sync circuitry of the camera
or flash.
Before using a Nikon flash unit not listed in this section, contact a Nikon-authorized
service representative for more information.
