Memo: Assuming that the ISO speed is 100, the optimum shoot-

ing distance can be calculated with the following formula.

Optimum shooting distance = Guide number (GN)/Lens iris (F)

(See page 54.)

Guide number (GN)

1. The control panel shows the current guide number (GN)

together with the optimum shooting distance according to

the camera setup.

2. Tu rn the select dial to set the guide number (GN).

Set the guide number (GN) so that the optimum shooting

distance is equal to the subject distance.

When the optimum shooting distance is 0.6 m (0.5 m in

case of close-up flash) or less, the displayed figure blinks

to warn that the subject is located outside the flash light

emission area.

Optimum shooting distance varies according to the cam-

era settings (ISO speed, lens iris (F) and lens focal dis-

tance (ZOOM)). See page 52 for details.
