Guide Number (GN)
Guide numbers indicate flash light intensity. The larger
the number, the farther you can reach with your flash.
From the guide number, you can easily obtain the
proper aperture setting required for an optimum
exposure.
●
Depending on the camera and lens you are using,
the effective flash range may be displayed. (Refer to
page 81.)
