Select On to activate Auto FP High-Speed Sync when using the op-
tional SB-800, SB-600, or SB-R200 fl ash units at shutter speeds faster
than / s (because the actual shutter speed may be slightly slower
than displayed in P and A modes, Auto FP may not always be activated
at a shutter speed of / s). Choose to enable fi ll fl ash when taking
portraits under bright light or when taking photographs at Large aper-
tures. Auto FP High-Speed Sync is not available when using the built-in
