11.2 RAPID mode

In flash modes A and ETTL, 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 ETTL flash modes. The RAPID
function is recommended especially in cases
where fast recycling times are more impor-
tant and maximum 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).
