Flash and Lighting
i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash
The F6 supports the i-TTL Flash Control
system, providing outstanding results and
myriad creative possibilities. Nikon’s Creative
Lighting System, the most advanced flash
control system anywhere, uses a new
algorithm and a brighter, shorter Monitor
Pre-flash to lift the precision of i-TTL
Balanced Fill-Flash even beyond that of
Nikon’s acclaimed 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced
Fill-Flash systems. Furthermore, the Creative
Lighting System allows you to employ
advanced flash techniques including Advanced
Wireless Lighting and FV (Flash Value) Lock.
Advanced Wireless Lighting
Wireless multiple flash can be performed just
as easily as with an on camera Speedlight,
affording you the freedom to explore the lim-
itless creative potential of the system. You can
also enjoy comprehensive control over scene
lighting when using Nikon’s i-TTL
Speedlights SB-800/SB-600 as they can be
separated into as many as four groups (the
master* and three i-TTL Speedlight groups).
Control independent flash mode settings and
adjustment of compensation values for each
group’s flash output level via the master. To
pre-check a scene for illumination and shad-
ows, there’s the Modeling Flash function.
Each group can comprise as many speedlights
as you want, virtually putting you in total
command of background lighting.
(*The SB-600 cannot be used as a master unit.)
Flash Value Lock (FV Lock)
Flash Value represents the degree of flash
exposure for a given subject. Engaging FV
Lock maintains the desired flash exposure
during zooming or recomposition, allowing
you to concentrate on the scene’s lighting.
Auto FP High-Speed Sync
Enables fill-flash photography even in bright
conditions at wide apertures with shallow
depth of field unhindered by the standard
1/250 second flash sync. Once the mode is
activated, the F6’s rapid flash synchronization
makes available shutter speeds faster than the
camera’s flash sync speed.
Multiple Power Sources
The F6’s standard power source, two CR123A
3v lithium batteries, enables high-speed film
advance at 5.5 fps. Or you can go with the
optional, multifaceted Multi Power Battery
Pack MB-40 that offers up to 8 fps film
advance. It requires either eight AA-size bat-
teries or the EN-EL4 Lithium-ion Battery.
The MB-40 also offers outstanding vertical
shooting operation, as it incorporates a shut-
ter release button, AF Start button, Multi-
selector and Command Dials.
Film Advance Modes
Four modes are available: Single (S),
Continuous Low-Speed (CL) for up to
approximately 2 frames per second (fps),
Continuous High-Speed (CH) for up to 5.5
fps (or 8 fps with optional Multi-Power
Battery Pack MB-40), and Continuous
Silent (CS) for nearly silent operation at
approximately 1 fps.
Databack Functions
Access built-in databack functions easily via
the rear LCD panel and Multi Selector.
Functions include data imprint (in-frame
or between-frame), multiple exposure and
interval timer. You also have control over
41 Custom Settings. The recorded data of
each shot can be downloaded to your
computer as text data via optional Data
Reader MV-1, which is equipped with a
CF (CompactFlash) card.
Nikon F-Mount
Nikon’s legendary lens mount compatibility
allows you to use any Nikkor lens in the
incredibly deep, varied lineup. Even with
older non-CPU lenses, Color Matrix
Metering can still be performed after pro-
gramming the lens’ focal length and maxi-
mum aperture in the camera’s memory. The
F6 can store this data for as many as ten non-
CPU lenses at a time.
