Note
To change the SFD from any given distance to any desired distance, locate the
given distance on top of the chart. Then read down the left side of the table to the
desired distance. The original exposure should be multiplied by the number
common to both the given column and the desired row to get the new exposure.
This chart may be used for distance changes providing the kV and mA levels are
not changed.
