Flash Guide Number Calculator
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Calculate flash exposure from guide numbers. Work out the right aperture for any flash-to-subject distance, or find your maximum range.
Silverlog Flash calculates flash exposure using guide numbers — the fundamental relationship between flash power, distance and aperture.
HOW IT WORKS
Choose what to solve for and enter the other two values. Find the aperture for a given flash-to-subject distance, the maximum distance for a given aperture, or the guide number from a known distance and aperture. Adjust ISO to see how sensitivity affects your working range.
