v When insufficient flash output for correct exposure is
indicated
When the flash-ready indicators on
the SB-5000 and in the cameras
viewfinder flash slowly for approx.
3 seconds after firing, underexposure
due to insufficient flash output may
have occurred.
To compensate, use a wider aperture
(smaller f-number) or higher ISO
sensitivity, or move the flash unit
closer to the subject and reshoot.
Amount of underexposure due to
insufficient flash output is indicated
by the exposure value (−0.3 EV to
−3.0 EV) on the SB-5000’s LCD panel
for approx. 3 seconds.
Exposure value can also be confirmed
in
menu (0B-11).
