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.
If there's going to be a FF DSLR in the near future, look for the
announcement to come just in time to miss the Christmas buying season,
it won't be the first time.
