Nikon CLS
How to configure Nikon CLS on: D90
Use CLS in P, S, A or M Exposure Modes.
1.) From the Pencil Menu on the main menu select Bracketing/Flash [ENTER]
2.) Select Flash Control for Built-in Flash [ENTER]
3.) Select Command Mode, [ENTER]
4.) Select TTL options, Channel and configure Groups [ENTER]
SB600 Considerations:
The SB600 will only work in TTL mode, so by selecting Manual or AA the SB600 will not fire.
When you power off the SB600 the settings will reset to Channel 4 and Group A. The SB800 will remember it’s setting, to make life easier on myself I always select Chanel 4 (for all SB Flashes) and group all SB600′s in Group A.
Don’t forget to open the Built-in Flash on your camera body.
