a built-in wide-flash adapter
that
increases the angle
of
coverage
to
match
that

"I
Guide Number
The
guide
number
indicates the
amount
of
light
generated by
the
flash. The larger
the
number, the
greater the flash output.
To calculate
the
range
of
the
flash at full power, divide
the
Guide Number by
the
aperture. For
example, at
ISO
100
the
58-400
has
a Guide Number
of
21
m or 69 ft.; its range at
an
aperture
of
f/5.6
is
21
-;-
5.6
or
about
3.7
meters (or in feet, 69
-;-
5.6
=
12
ft. 4
in.).
For each
twofold
increase
in
ISO
sensitivity,
multiply
the
Guide Number by
the
square root
of
two
(approximately
1.4).
For
example,
when
the
58-400
is
used
with
the
060
at a sensitivity setting
of
ISO
200,
the
range
of
the
58-400, at
an
aperture
of
f/5.6
is
21
-;-
5.6
x
1.4
=
5.3
meters, or 69
-;-
5.6
x
1.4
=
17
ft.
5 in. (at
ISO
200,
20°C/68°F,
the
angle
of
coverage
is
sufficient
to
light
the
picture angle
of
an
18mm lens).
