- Aperture value f guide number shooting distance example when the sensitivity is iso 200 and the shooting distance is 4 m f 17 4 approx 4 if the resulting number 4 in the above example is not available as a lens aperture a smaller number that is closest 4 in the above example is generally used 244
- Calculating aperture value from shooting distance 244
- Calculating shooting distance from aperture value 244
- Distance and aperture when using the built in flash 244
- Example when the sensitivity is iso 200 and the aperture value is f5 l1 17 5 approx 3 m l2 3 5 approx 0 m therefore the flash can be used in a range of about 0 m to 3 m however the built in flash in this camera cannot be used when the distance is 0 m or less when the flash is used at distances closer than 0 m it causes vignetting in the picture corners light is distributed unevenly and the picture may be overexposed 244
- Relationships among the guide number aperture and distance must be considered when shooting with the flash to obtain a correct exposure calculate the shooting distance or aperture value in the following way and adjust the shooting conditions if the flash output is not sufficient 244
- The following equation calculates the effective distance of the flash maximum flash distance l1 guide number aperture value minimum flash distance l2 maximum flash distance 5 244
