aperfectshot Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 My D80 built in flash just stopped firing, it pops up but won't flash. Has anyone had this problem? Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickwhite Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Try setting the flash to manual (Menu - Custom Function 22); if the flash still will not fire then it looks like you have a fault, possibly blown the flash tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aperfectshot Posted October 21, 2007 Author Share Posted October 21, 2007 When it is in the auto mode it says option not available with current setting and it always flashed in the auto mode. But when I put in program or the other modes I can change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickwhite Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Sorry Auto mode is unknown territory for me! Yes switch to another mode to test it - if it flashes ok then, it is probably just down to camera settings (a two button reset will probably clear it), if it does not flash still, then you have a fault.

bruce_margolis Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Gloria, the problem may be just a setting issue. You might have accidentally turned off the flash. Check out page 40 in the manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
