Why not just go the Nikon Tech support site and dl the 8800 user manual?

Excellent suggestion, Ed! I will do that.

Meanwhile, I did find out that Museum blocks flash in
favor of optimizing certain aspects of the 8800's
photometrics (as I call it, which may be incorrect) to
bias exposure, brightness, sharpness, contrast, color
balance, etc. for typical "museum" conditions.
