Using LCD Panel For Shooting-Distance Computation
Confirming flash shooting distance is an indispensable step
for successful flash photography. The SB-26 can be used to
compute the appropriate distance range.
An appropriate flash shooting distance is determined
using the following variables:
• ISO FILM SPEED IN USE
• APERTURE VALUE
• ZOOM-HEAD POSITION
Indicator bars
/
will appear to show a proper shooting
distance range only after all those variables have been set in
the LCD panel.
