[QUOTE="That8BitMan, post: 637688, member: 44025"] So after looking a bit more deeply, I found out that Nikon used different TTL standards throughout the years and the F5 only supports the earlier standards. The fun part is that my flash only supports the latest standard so I think what the flash tries to do is communicate using iTTL for a while but then after it realises that the camera doesn't support it, it goes into a dumb mode that only looks for the trigger signal which is why it works after a few minutes [/QUOTE]
