D70 Aperture Priority + Flash question

[RedHotSly]

Hi,

It seems like I can't get a clear answer from Nikon. They just told me to use the minimum speed setting to workaround the problem. They won't explain why it does not select a shutter speed between 1/60 and 1/500. I'll have to live with that.

Thanks for your help

I'm having a hard time understanding your beef...

If you have your min shutter speed @ 1/60 and, in AP the camera is selecting 1/60 what is the problem? The camera is selecting 1/60 to expose the ambient lighting. If you were to take your camera outside on a sunny day it might well choose 1/200 or higher to expose the ambient lighting.
