[QUOTE="bluenoser, post: 48433, member: 6351"] The built in flash is firing as that's how it's communicating with the SB900. However in your setup, the on-board flash is not contributing to the lighting of your subject as it fires it's pre-flash signal to the SB900 before the shutter opens. So what you have is your on-board flash disabled but the commander mode is active through your built-in flash. You could also get the SU-800 as a dedicated flash commander instead of using the internal one. [/QUOTE]
