Exposure compensation in TTL mode With a dark subject (with low reflectivity) or one that is light in tone (having high reflectivity), over- or under- exposure may occur. To prevent this, compensate exposure by rotating camera's exposure compensation dial.
A1 or A2 Mode (for Non-TTL Automatic Flash Exposure Control) Use the S8-22 on Al or A2 mode for automatic oper- ation with Nikon Cameras other than Nikon F-5011 N2020 , F- 401/N4004* , F-301/N2000 , FA, FE2 and FG.
2. Select appropriate aperture The aperture index windows show usable apertures . With the film speed inde x at ISO 100 , for example, you can se lect either aperture f/4 or f/8 . If you s elect fl4 , you can take pictures of sub jec ts 0. 8m to 6 .2 m (approx .

Shooting distance range in A 1 or A2 mode Regardless of the film speed and the correspondi ng flstop available at A1 or A2 , the auto shooting range is as shown in the following table. Auto shooting range Selector mode Normal With wide-flash adapter A1 O .
M Mode (for Manual Flash Exposure Control) In M mode , the S8-22 fires at its maximum light output regardless of the flash-to-subject distance. To determine aperture with the S8-22's aperture selection/shoot- ing di s tance range panel for manual fla sh operation, read the following .
3. Choose aperture . Determine. the shooting distance and follow the appropriate vertical line upward from the distance scale until it meets the right edge of one of the distance range indicators . Then follow the dis- tance range indicator horizontally and you can find the appropriate aperture .
4. Set your chosen aperture. With Nikon F- 401 / N4004 , use camera 's aper- ture dial . 28 Ne xt , turn on fla sh unit and take s hot in the same manner s hown in " BASIC OPERAT I ON ," s teps 10 to 14 .
MD Mode (for Manual Flash Exposure Control with Motor Drive Operation) At the motor drive (MO) setting, the S8 -22 is able to recycle fast enough to synchronize with a motor - driven camera firing con- tinuously up to 6 frames per second. It is possib le to take up to four full flash pictures in rapid succession in this way.
3. Choose aperture. Determine the shooting distance and follow the appropriate vertical line upward from the distance scale unti l it meets one of the aperture/distance index windows for MD mode on the distance range indicators. Then follow the distance range indicator hori· zontally and you can find the appropriate aperture .
4. Set your chosen aperture. With Nikon F·401/N4004 , use camera's aper · tur e dial. Ne xt, turn on fla sh unit and take shot in the same manner s hown in " BAS I C OPERATION ," ste ps 10 to 14.

READY-LIGHT INDICATIONS , ---------- -- When the flash unit i s turned on , the S8 - 22 's ready - light lights up to indicate the flash is ready to fire .
Ready-Ught Warning Functions To prevent errors, the ready - light inside the camera's viewfinder blinks in the cases listed below. When blink- ing occurs , check the S8-22's flash mode se lector setting, the camera ' s shutter speed/mode selector set- ting or film speed setting and adjust as necessary.
USING WIDE-FLASH ADAPTER----------- The ang le of illumination of the S8 - 22 covers the picture angle of a 35 mm lens. When the wide-flash adapter stored in the flash head is set , it increases the angle of cover - age, allowing the S8-22 to be used with a 28mm lens.
SYNCHRO-SUNLIGHT FILL-IN FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY----- For backlit subjects , to fill in s hadow s and balance lighting , use the 88-22 even in daytime . ~----------------, r In the following , use a s lower s hutter s peed to '. avoid a dar k background .
In TTL Mode 1. Set the camera shutter speed manually to a flash synchronization speed or slower speed . 2. Frame the background in the camera viewfinder, turn on the camera ' s exposure meter to determine aperture for a correct background exposure, then set the aper ture on the lens .
In M Mode 1. Manually set the camera shutter speed to a flash sync hronization speed or slower speed. 2 . Frame the background in the camera's viewfinder , then turn on the camera's exposure meter to read proper aperture for correct background exposure , and set the aperture on the lens.
DIFFUSING THE LlGHT-------------- 40 Di ffu se d light eliminates h arsh sha dow s an d c r eates a ttra ctive portr ai t s, There a re two ways to diffuse light: 1, Boun ce light off a broad re fl ec tive sur f ace suc h as the cei l ing ; 2, U se a diffu se r between the fla sh a nd the s ubj ec t.
Bounce Flash Photography Procedure 1. Select a ceiling to bounce the flash from. In color photography , se l ect a whi t e or si l ver cei l ing-other· wise , co l or photographs come out with an unnatural colo r cast simi lar to that of the reflecting surface.
Using A Diffuser Place a translucent material, such as one or more sheets of tracing paper , between the flash and subject to diffuse light. It is recommended that you experiment with different flash-to-d i ffuser distances and/or more than one diffuser .
MULTIPLE FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY----------- TTL Multiple Flash Photography Use the Nikon 8peedlight 88-22 , 88-20, 88-18 , 8B-16B or 88-15 connected to an F -5 01 / N20 20, F-401/N4004 , F -30 1lN 2000, FA,.

ABOUT BATTERIES-------------- New batteries Purchase the new (freshest) batteries possible . Temperature Battery life ratings are based on operation at 20°C (68°F) . At other temperatures, battery life is shortened. For low temperature operation , keep spare batteries and if possible, use NiCd batteries .
ACCESSORIES---------------- Sync Cords SC - 11 and SC-15 For off-camera or manual multiple lighting setups or to connect the S8-22 to a camera without a hot shoe use sync cord SC-11 (25 cm l ong) or coi l ed sy nc cord SC- 1 5 (one meter long).
TTL Multi·Flash Sync Cords SC-18 and SC-19 Use the SC-18 or SC-19 to connect flash units in TTL multiple f l ash operation. The SC-18 is app r ox. 1.5m long ; the SC-19 is approx. 3m . Flash Unit Couplers AS-4 and AS-7 To mount the S8-22 on a Nikon F3-series camera wi th th e OE - 2 or OE -3 finder , use the AS-4 or AS-7.
