6. The Flash Does Not Sync

Try the following if the flash does not sync.

1. Check that the flash unit is correctly attached.
Try again after removing and reattaching the flash unit.


2. Confirm that the flash mounting foot signal contacts are clean.
Check the camera accessory shoe and signal contacts on the flash mounting foot for dirt and clean them with a clean, dry cloth if necessary. Contact a Nikon-authorized service representative if you are uncertain how to proceed or are not confident you can perform this task yourself.


3. Check flash sync settings.
If the flash is connected via a sync cable, the flash will not sync at shutter speeds faster than the camera’s flash sync speed. Choose a shutter speed in the supported range.
