[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 740669, member: 12496"] If you actually tried it, then I request you repeat the test. I think it is a wrong conclusion. I don't have a D5300 either, but I doubt it works different than the other DSLR models. If the Internal flash is not ready yet, the shutter does trigger, but the internal flash does not fire. A hot shoe external flash will fire, but at reduced power if not yet Ready, so that is unacceptable too. The Flash Ready indicator is to help that situation. And another use also, if the flash does not have sufficient power for the attempt tried, then this Ready Indicator flashes rapidly three times to signal that the exposure likely was insufficient, and something else must be changed for it expose properly. Technically, the three flashes means TTL flash was AT maximum power, but it most likely means it was insufficient power. [/QUOTE]
