‹: Rear-Curtain Sync
The Speedlight fires at the end of the
exposure, turning available light into a stream
of light that follows the flash-illuminated
moving subject. When Rear-Curtain Sync is
set in Auto-Multi Progam or Aperture-Priority
Auto exposure mode, Slow Sync is
automatically set. (With an optional
Speedlight SB-26, 25 and 24, set the
Speedlight’s sync mode selector to REAR.)
›: Red-Eye Reduction
The Red-Eye Reduction lamp lights for
approx. 1 sec. before the flash fires in order
to reduce the red-eye effect in photos of
people or animals. (With an optional
Speedlight SB-80DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27 or
SB-26, the Red-Eye Reduction lamp of the
Speedlight lights.)
⁄: Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync
Red-Eye Reduction and Slow Sync mode are simultaneously set. Set the
exposure mode to Auto-Multi Progam or Aperture-Priority Auto. (With an
optional Speedlight SB-80DX, SB-28/28DX, SB-27 or SB-26, the Red-Eye
Reduction lamp of the Speedlight lights.)

• Five flash sync modes are available with the F80/F80D/F80S.

Dial while pressing the flash sync mode button ±.
∞: Front-Curtain Sync
Set the flash sync mode to Front-Curtain
Sync for normal flash photography. The
camera’s shutter speed is automatically set
to 1/60 to 1/125 sec. for flash photography
in Auto-Multi Progam or Aperture-Priority
Auto exposure mode.(With an optional
Speedlight SB-26, SB-25 and SB-24, set
the Speedlight’s sync mode selector to
NORMAL.)
¤: Slow Sync
Normally, the camera’s shutter speed is
automatically set to 1/60 to 1/125 sec. for
flash photography in Auto-Multi Progam or
Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode.
However, for shooting nighttime scenes,
Slow Sync uses a slower shutter speed
(down to 30 sec.) to bring out background
details using all of the available light.
NOTE: Flash Sync Modes
• When Red-Eye Reduction or Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync is
selected, the Red-Eye Reduction lamp lights for approx. 1 sec. before the
flash fires. Do not move the camera or let the subject move until the shutter
is released. (Red-Eye Reduction is not recommended in shooting situations
where shutter release is your top priority.)
• With some lenses, light from the Red-Eye Reduction lamp may not reach
the subject’s eyes. In some cases, red-eye effect may not be reduced
effectively due to the location of subject.
• With Slow Sync and Red-Eye Reduction with Slow Sync, keep the camera
steady to prevent picture blur since the shutter speed is slow. Use of a
tripod is recommended.
• Rear-Curtain Sync cannot be used with a studio flash system since the
correct synchronisation cannot be obtained.
