FP High-Speed Sync Flash — Flash Photography At Higher Shutter Speeds
Unlike other Nikon SLR models the F90-Series/N90 camera
and the SB-25 allow you to use faster shutter speeds up to
1/4000 sec. for flash synchronization.
Ordinarily the flash fires only when the curtains are fully
opened in regular flash syncs. With FP High-Speed Sync
Flash, the flash consecutively emits light at an extremely
rapid cycle, while the shutter curtains travel to expose the
entire film surface but the curtains are never fully opened
(i.e. exposure with a slit).
By using a high-speed shutter and flash simultaneously,
you can create light flow from a rapidly moving subject.
In outdoor photography, it also enables you to use both a
wider aperture and a faster shutter speed to achieve a shal-
lower depth of field and purposely blur the subjects back-
ground.
Set Up and Practice
1
Choose position (flash mode selector). Confirm
appears in the LCD panel.
2
Choose position (flash sync mode selec-
tor)*.
* FP High-Speed Sync Flash operation can be performed regardless of the flash
sync mode selector setting; for simplicity, always leave the switch at this posi-
tion.
3
Confirm ISO film speed has been set and appears in
the SB-25s LCD panel.
ISO speed of film in use is automatically set; if not shown in
the LCD panel, lightly press the cameras shutter release
button.
4
Confirm the zoom-head position has been set and
appears in the SB-25s LCD panel.
The zoom-head position is automatically set and indicated
in the SB-25s LCD panel when the camera is used with an
AF Nikkor lens (including the latest D-Type) or a Nikkor lens
having a built-in CPU.
Or, set manually according to the shooting situation (see
page 29).
DO NOT USE THE WIDE FLASH PANEL (zoom head at the
20mm position). When used, , and blink in the
LCD panel as an alert.

Note that a guide number for FP High-Speed Sync Flash
varies with the selected shutter speed and it is smaller than
for regular flash synchronization (i.e. smaller light output).
Furthermore, we recommend you use shutter speeds
between 1/250 and 1/4000 sec. to avoid uneven exposure.
Before proceeding:
ATTACH SPEEDLIGHT TO CAMERA.
TURN ON BOTH SPEEDLIGHT AND CAMERA.
USE MANUAL EXPOSURE MODE.
USE SINGLE-SERVO AUTOFOCUS (S or A) OR MANU-
AL FOCUS (M).
USE SINGLE-FRAME SHOOTING (S) FILM ADVANCE
MODE.
