how can you defeat the pop-up flash in ttl on a Nikon d 5000?

On the D 5000 I'm not sure. On the D 5200 press the set button, select flash mode, then select off.

I have no idea. When I put the ring flash on my pop-up flash does not pop up.

it's pretty obvious the ttl wont work with the Canon if the flash is for a nikon but you can still use the manual function on both the camera and the flash. The flash can beset to 1/8 1/4 1/2 3/4 and 1-1 Each setting is for distance of flash. 1/8 is for about 1-2 feet away 1/4 is for 3-6 feet and so on. Experiment with these settings until you find the optimal setting for your situation. for nightlife set the flash for 1/3rd and set the camera to have the lens open as small as possible ad a flash suppresser to the flash. Set the iso at 100-400 and the camera at 1 second exposure or just below and have fun! it's pretty obvious the ttl wont work with the Canon if the flash is for a nikon but you can still use the manual function on both the camera and the flash.

I am not really sure! I had set my settings on automatic and the flash only worked when it was needed. I am sure there must be a way to keep it on, but I really don't have the answer for you. You may be able to download the manuel for it from the sony website. Worth a try.

To use the flash, you have to manually lift it up from the top of the camera. It does work quite well though.

The manual says it is "suitable for digital Nikon cameras with TTL and i-TTL flash control"

You have you use flash triggers to fire this flash wirelessly. Or turn the flash to slave by pressing the mode button until it says s1. Then any time your pop up flash fires it will fire as long as the flash is within sight of your camera flash. There is no auto mode for the flash so if by sync you mean the flash will fire but won't expose correctly. It does not have that auto feature called ttl. Phottix makes good flash triggers at a decent price. I would recommend watching some YouTube videos on the flash if you have any other questions.

It should work if you use it off camera in manual mode and triggered by either another on camera flash or other off camera flash which is how I use it with all 4 Nikon cameras I have. Not sure if it will work on camera in hot shoe in auto mode but its not capable in TTL. You should just consider it as auxiliary flash. It is very dependable in manual mode not attached to camera.

I tried it with my D5100 and couldn't TTL... maybe did the wrong settings !

Get off of Auto. Shoot in Program mode, and you can use fill flash. Set flash to "always on" in Program. That is "fill flash." Turn it off when you don't need it.

Yes, the D3200 does have a pop-up flash unit the appears from the top of the camera in front of the External flash hotshoe. It will pop-up automatically anytime a focus point determines that there is not enough light. You can defeat this feature by turning the flash off. You cannot, however, pop the flash up manuallly.

I believe you don't. This flash is E-TTL and compact camera doesn't use it (it requires a SLR camera). I use it in a G9 and G12 in full manual mode.

I use the R1 wireless system from Nikon on my 200mm Micro-Nikkor. The pop up flash on the camera functions as the commander to trigger 4 SB-R200 (NIkon) flash units attached to the adaptor ring at the end of the lens. When more light is needed, I hand hold my SB-910 (Nikon speedlight) near the subject in remote mode. The pop-up flash will remotely trigger the SB-910 as well. f16 on the 200 seems to get me the best results, but that requires a lot of light.

Hi Adelqui,As Mark already said the sb28 is really only useful in manual mode on your d5100. It does not have i-TTL metering as the newer flashes; sb7-,8-,900 which do a great job automatically adjusting flash exposure. The sb28 is one of the most powerful Nikon flashes which makes it great for bounce flash and off-camera with umbrellas and other modifiers. If you don't mind setting flash power levels manually, I highly recommend the sb28 for its power and durability. It is also very affordable compared to other flashes!

When I use the wireless triggers, I usually go manual. In TTL mode you can increase the exposure by using the +/- function on your camera.

I have never used it. According to a review I read, it doesn't support ttl pass-thru for canon, only for nikon and sony.

Hello, Maybe try turning flash off, if you haven't already. There is also a macro mode built in this camera to account for close up shots. Hope this helps. :)

You need to set your camera to E-TTL and use a compatible flash if you want automatic setting of flash power by the camera. If you want manual control, set it to manual. The settings are in: External flash func. setting > Flash mode
