11.1 RAPID mode

In flash modes A and TTL, the recycling times
depend on how much light is needed for the
exposure. If the recycling time is too long, the
RAPID function can be switched on in the A
and TTL flash modes. The RAPID function is
recommended especially in cases where fast
recycling times are more important and maxi-
mum flash
output is less important, such as in relatively
small spaces. However, the guide number is
reduced by 1 level, e.g. from a guide number
of 36 (at ISO 100 zoom 35) to guide number
25 (at ISO 100 zoom 35).
