cameras

When using the SB-400 with D90, D80, D70-Series, D7000,

D5100, D5000, D3200, D3100, D3000, D60, D50, D40-Series or

COOLPIX 8800 cameras, the SB-400 must be turned on.

• If the SB-400 is turned off while mounted on any of the above

cameras, and the camera's "Auto flash" function is on, the

camera's built-in flash will automatically pop up when shooting

in poor light, coming into contact with the SB-400.

• It is recommended that the SB-400 be detached from the

camera when flash is not required.

A note on microcomputer-controlled Speedlights

The Speedlight incorporates a microcomputer to control flash

operations. In rare cases, the Speedlight may not work properly

even after a fresh battery is properly installed. If this happens,

replace the battery while the Speedlight’s power is turned on.
