Description
Manual Flash Calculator (Free Edition) provides a handy utility for accurately determining flash-subject distance. It's quick and easy to use for tricky lighting situations and backgrounds, where TTL auto-flash can often struggle.

This app is ad-free, and requires no special device permissions or network connectivity.

Key Features:
• Aperture range F/1.2 to F/22
• ISO range ISO50 to ISO6400
• Flash output ratios to 1/256 power
• Flash exposure compensation to 5 EV
• Zoom support for unlimited guide settings
• Power increments in 1/3, 1/2 or Full stops
• Macro closeup distances (in and cm)

Set the guide number/zoom coverage, power-ratio limit, power adjustment interval, and guide number units for your flash. (You can find this information from the guide number table in your flash user manual).

If you own more than one flash unit, please consider supporting this project by upgrading to Manual Flash Calculator Professional. It supports saving an unlimited number of flash configurations. And it costs less than the price of a cup of coffee!

Comments on Manual Flash Calculator for Android

★★★★☆ A Google User · Jan 19, 2015
Really great What about the settings for the zoom?
★★★★☆ A Google User · Mar 30, 2015
I DID love it... But a simple checkbox choice between zoom or non-zoom would have been much better than "set the same guide number for each zoom position.". Yeah, nah. Suggestion: a list: First entry in the old style - a simple slider for GN - max/min defined by user. Followed by a number of (standard and) user defined entries for zoomable units. This would allow those of use with numerous strobes to easily select between the ones we can't zoom with the old GN slider, and the ones we can zoom by selecting a different strobe definition from the list. Preferably also allow us to define the focallenght for the various zoom GN rather than have to pick from an assumed set.
★★★★☆ Chris Hunt · Oct 22, 2021
Relatively new to flash photography but in my rather limited experience 8 know the distance of the flash to subject it's the power setting for the flash that's variable. I realize you can move the sliders to get the distance you want but wouldn't it be easier to set the distance as a fixed value and have the flash power as the variable?
★☆☆☆☆ Matthew Johnson · Aug 13, 2015
Other screens Using an LG g3, and can't go to any other screen, saw the entry about lower left button, but that doesn't work on this phone.
★★☆☆☆ Laura Connolly · Dec 14, 2017
You can only have one custom guide number. Deleting others won't let you add more. What's the point? Hey thanks for your reply :) adding more doesn't work it just replaces the first one you added.
