Flash shooting distance range
Flash shooting distance for the built-in Speedlight changes according to the
film speed in use and aperture setting.
• The maximum flash shooting distance can also be calculated by dividing the guide
number by the selected aperture value.
Example: When f/2.8 is selected with ISO 100 film using the camera’s built-in
Speedlight, the maximum flash shooting distance will be: 12/2.8 = approx. 4.2m
