You're right Greg. There I go thinking like an American (in feet). 
They do list the GN as 11, but that is for meteric. The GN for feet 
would be about 35. That still only gives a maximum flash range of 6.6 
feet at f8 and 4.6 feet at f11 (using 100 spped film). A lot better, 
but still not much good for getting those across-the-room shots.

Good thing I never tried to use this flash using my flawed 
calculations. See math doesn't always work *{;-)

Jon Golden, you should have caught this and scolded me!

Thanks for the time,
