Note regarding manual partial light output levels:

Halving the light output (e.g. P1/1 to P1/2 or P1/2 to P1/4) reduces the guide number by the factor 0.7 (e.g. GN 44 to GN 31 or 31 to 22).

Avvertenza per le potenze ridotte manualmente:

 

Dimezzando la potenza (ad es. da P1/1 a P1/2 o da P1/2 a P1/4) il

 

numero guida si riduce rispettivamente del fattore 0,7 (ad esempio da LZ 44

 

a LZ 31 oppure da 31 a 22).

￿

Observación para potencias parciales de luz en modo manual:

Reduciendo a la mitad la potencia parcial de luz (por ej. de P1/1 a P1/2 o de P1/2 a P1/4) disminuye el número-guía en el factor 0,7 ( por ej. de

LZ 44 a LZ 31 o de 31 a 22).
