Thanks, FotoHog, I tried that search already to no avail. Seems that, that book is like hen's teeth. ;)

I finally broke down and bought a used D500. However, MPB does not supply manuals. I prefer not to rely on the Nikon manuals as they tend to be wordy and have small print for these old eyes. So, I am looking for a copy of "Nikon D500 for Dummies" to learn more about the camera. If you have one of these books for sale, I would appreciate your letting me know and the price you want for it.

Is this currently for sale - it's the Strobonar 682 S?
Sorry, this was sold about 2 years ago. I regret that I forgot to list it as SOLD.

I would prefer to purchase a D500 from a member of the UHH. Please send me your information and the price of your body. I have plenty of DX lenses. Thank you for looking.

I haven't seen how you use the flash.
Is it in through-the-lens mode? If not, it is all guess work.
What mode is the camera in? - I use Manual, ss at the camera's fastest flash sync, lens wide open, ISO at 400
Do you use flash exposure compensation to fine tune?

I use TTL, manual, 1/250, ISO 400.........no flash compensation. Thanks to all of you for your feedback.

Use AF-S and the centre single point focus to start with, with matrix metering. The reason for AF-S is that on some cameras the 'focus assist light' does not work with AF-C and beware that with the lens cap fitted this 'may' impair the directional focus assist light.
Thank you, very much, Grahame. That is the kind of information that I was hoping for. I appreciate your time and consideration. Frank

Should I use AF-A, as opposed to AF-S? Which ISO to start, 400? Focus setting.......Matrix? Any other settings, for starters?

YesBefore we blame the equipment, what are the camera and flash settings being used by the photographer?
Are you bouncing the flash off an indoor ceiling, when possible? Yes
Are you using flash exposure compensation when shooting in A / P / S? No
Have you experimented with manually controlling the flash output, a feature of this advanced speedlite? No
Do you have a diffuser attached to the flash?

Most my attempts at flash have been in the manual mode. Is that the best mode for flash shooting? I am simply looking for a baseline of "suggested settings" for this camera/flash set up. I will gladly experiment once I get a good feel for the best settings to use. I have seen suggestions for "sports settings", but have not seen any suggestions for basic flash setup. Thanks!

I have been taking photos of my 6 grandkids for over 20 years, however, the pictures I take with my Nikon SB-800 are terribly under or over exposed. In all honesty, I don't take many flash photos with this equipment. So, my question is this, what are the best overall camera settings to get good quality flash photos with my D7100 and SB-800? I would really like to take better flash photos. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks! Frank
