Accessory Shoe ®
Located at the base of the rewind knob @, the accessory shoe
allows direct mounting of a Nikon dedicated flash unit, such
as
the 88-12, 88-16A or 88-17.
To
mount other direct-mounting
flash units (having either
an
180
- or Nikon F2-type mounting
foot) to the F3AF
's
accessory shoe, a Nikon
Flash
Unit Coupler
is
required (for details, refer to page 56.)
The
accessory shoe
also accepts accessory cords, such
as
the
8C-12
and
8C-13
, for
convenient flash photography with Nikon bracket-mounting
units, such
as
the
88-11
and
14.
Three electrical contacts @
on
the accessory shoe provide for
synchronization of the flash unit, automatic
TTL
output control,
and
ready-light indication (via
an
LED)
in
the camera's view-
finder, plus auto switching to the proper synchronization speed
of
1/80sec.
Caution:
For flash photography, it
is
recommended that
you
use a
Nikon dedicated electronic flash unit which operates with a low-voltage
curren
t.
The
use
of
any other flash which operates at high voltages may
damage the camera's circuitry; any damage caused by such use
is not
covered by the Nikon warranty.
