Hi all, Lately, I have been having some problems with my SB 800. Regardless which lens I use, the speedlight will show the focal length at 14mm. Even when I attached a zoom lens on it, it still stays at 14mm. Anyone encountered something similar? Thanks!
SB-800 Auto-zoom works when head is not rotated, and not tilted, and diffuser and bounce card are completely inserted in the body. No Dome or any attachment installed, no rubber band or tape personal inventions on the flash that could possibly press in on the micro switch on the flash body and disable the auto zoom feature of the flash. Once that is settled, see if your lens, or zoom lens, as well as camera, is compatible. Do you have a G lens ? Do you have a D lens ? and what is your camera model...
