Thanks, Tim. Seems like the book should make it that simple.

Another question then, if the flash sync speed is 1/60 ttl, why does Carl
Shipman in his book say to "set shutter speed to1/30 or slower" when using
manual operation or normal auto operation (page 97, 98, 10th edition)? Is he
just trying to be extra careful? Is there some circumstance where they don't
sync at 1/60 manual and 1/60 mechanical?
