In the battery life column, figures on the right indicate the number of bursts in A-

TTL mode, and figures on the left indicate the number of bursts in manual (1/1)
mode.
The number of bursts possible at the 1/2, 1/4, 1/8. 1/16, 1/32. 1/64 and 1/128
manual power settings, are greater than number of bursts possible at the full-
power (1/1) setting by factors of 2. 4, 8, 10,12, 15 and 18, respectively.
In the recycle time column, the left-hand values are the flash recycle times in A-

TTL mode, and the right-hand values are the flash recycle times in manual mode

at full (1/1) power.
