I am a long time Nikon user, but new to flash. I use a cp5700 with an
SB80DX flash speedlite. Anyone out there tell me how to use this set up to
it's best advantage. My main question is, in TTL mode, do I still use the
settings on camera to take the photo? Is the flash unit automatically
synched to the camera, or, do I also have to set the shutter? As you can
see, I need help. Thanks,

Aren't all these questions addressed in the manuals?
