Built-In Speedlight and TTL Flash Modes
• Built-in Speedlight and TTL Flash modes
This camera is equipped with a built-in Speedlight that provides an angle
of coverage for a 28mm lens with a guide number of 12 (ISO 100, m).
When the subject is dark or backlit (except in d or g), in a (AUTO
mode) or Vari-Program, the built-in Speedlight automatically pops up.
When the shutter is released, the flash fires to create natural-looking flash
photography utilising Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash.
In P (Auto-Multi Program), S (Shutter-Priority Auto), A (Aperture-Priority
Auto) or M (Manual) exposure mode, when the subject is dark or backlit,
flash recommended indication fi blinks in the viewfinder, and the
Speedlight pops up when the Speedlight lock-release button is pressed
and the Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash is possible. (In Manual exposure
mode, Standard TTL Flash is selected.) In addition to shooting in dim
light, the flash can be used in daylight to reduce shadows on the main
subject or to put catchlights in your subject’s eyes.
Five flash sync modes—Front-Curtain Sync (Normal Sync), Slow Sync,
Rear-Curtain Sync, Red-Eye Reduction and Red-Eye Reduction with
Slow Sync—are available with this camera.
•See below for the TTL Flash modes, page 80 for using the built-in Speedlight and
page 78 for the flash sync modes.
Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash
Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash is automatically set in
a, Vari-Program, P, S or A exposure mode. In
this flash mode, a well-balanced exposure of the
main subject (subject in focus) and the
background is achieved—based on the brightness
sensed by the Matrix Metering.
Standard TTL Flash
Standard TTL Flash is automatically selected
when the exposure mode is set to M. In Standard
TTL Flash, the main subject is correctly exposed
but background exposure is not considered.
Standard TTL Flash is useful when you want to
highlight the main subject.
• Ready-light
•When using the built-in Speedlight or an
optional Speedlight such as the SB-80DX,
SB-50DX, SB-30, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-23 or
SB-22s, the ready-light fi appears in the
viewfinder when the Speedlight is fully charged
and ready to fire.
•If the ready-light blinks approx. 3 sec. after full
flash output, underexposure may have occurred
(when using built-in Speedlight or optional
Speedlight set to TTL or non-TTL Auto Flash
mode). Check the focus distance, aperture or
flash shooting distance range and shoot again.
• Accessory shoe
•An optional Speedlight, i.e. SB-80DX, SB-50DX,
SB-30, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-23 or SB-22s
can be attached directly to the accessory shoe
of the F65/F65D without a cord. This accessory
shoe is equipped with a safety lock which
prevents accidental drop when a Speedlight with
a safety-lock pin (SB-80DX, SB-30, SB-28/28DX,
SB-27, SB-26, SB-25 or SB-22s) is attached.
