[QUOTE="algmiyazaki, post: 309946, member: 14248"] I've just given up on figuring this out. I don't think even Nikon knows the answer. I've tried everything and it seems to be completely random. Sometimes it'll go off in broad daylight and sometimes it won't go off even after the sun has set. It never matters if I change the aperture or if I'm shooting in macro. For example, one bright afternoon I was shooting flowers that were in the shade and it was going off no problem (macro). The next day I was up shooting flowers again, 45 minutes before sunrise in considerably darker conditions (much darker than the shaded area) and it wouldn't go off. Same lens, same fixed focal length, tried all sorts of settings. When this happens the only way I can force it to go off is put my hand in front of the lens to the point where the image is extremely dark (pitch black). Obviously this won't work as I don't want pictures of my hand! [/QUOTE]
