_ Caution

-Guide numbers under water vary according to water conditions.

-When aiming the Speedlight diagonally. open the aperture 1/2 to 1 step wider (smaller f-number) than the aperture value obtained in the

above equation to compensate for the different angle of reflection . _ When taking photographs with the arm removed from the bracket .

Nikon recommends you to take various pictures with different apertures by adjusting the camera-to-subject distance.

• Important

If the camera-to-subject distance is actually measured underwater. multiply the measured distance by 3/4 to get the estimated distance underwater.

For example. if the actual camera-to-subject distance is 1.33 meters (4.3 feet). set the lens distance scale to 1 meter (3.3 feet). and read the "1 meter" column on the exposure calculation chart.
