Flash Jack 990/995 Manual for Nikon

Short Description
It is often desirable to disable the internal flash and use only the light from the external flash for the exposure. Disabling the internal flash reduces the chance of redeye.

Although fairly straightforward for the 990, the nomenclature in the 995’s menu can be confusing. “Internal Flash Off”>”On” disables the internal flash on the 995.

Digital cameras, because of the instant feedback provided when compared to film cameras, invite the photographer to experiment.
