Assuming this works like other Nikons, this is the confusing way they
designate sync speed.

When you manually set the shutter speed to X-sync the camera sets the
shutter speed to exactly 1/200th sec.

When you use the i-TTL mode and let the camera control the flash, it
will sync at up to 1/250th.

Nikon also has a feature called auto-FP.  When that's enabled, the
camera automatically shifts into high-speed sync when you go above the
regular sync speed.  On other bodies there is a custom function that
let's you pick the shift point from (if this body is consistent)
1/200th or 1/250th.

Nikon uses the term FP-sync for what almost everyone else calls high-speed sync.
