Interesting. The FA500-FTZ is one flash able to output 1/32 of full power. If the burst duration is 1/500 at full power, it should mean at least the flash has an output with duration length within Kevin's needs.
How does that translate to GN? is it as simple as 5 stops (2^5 = 32) under the nominal GN of the flash?
