FLASH SYNCHRONIZATION

Nikon |

The Nikon EL2 camera is designed to synchronize with

most types of flashbulbs at almost all shutter speeds and

with electronic flash at speeds to 1/125 second. Addi-

tionally, the camera is fitted with an automatic sync

switchover circuit which selects the proper synchroniza-

tion timing as the shutter speed is selected (operation

with the shutter-speed dial set to "A" is not possible,

however). The table below shows which shutter speeds

may be used with different types of flashbulbs.

No special adapters are necessary when using flash

units equipped with an ISO-type hot-shoe mount (such

as Nikon Speedlight Units SB-3 and SB-4) or bottom-

mount units (such as the Speedlight SB-5). For other

Nikon units, such as the Flash Unit BC-7 and Speed-

light Unit SB-2, the Flash Unit Coupler AS-2 is avail-

able and offers, again, operation without the need for

a sync

cord.

'Some

class bulbs that have shorter flash duration

may not

cover these speeds.
