Technical data

The viewfinder of your CONTAX RTS shows the field covered by the lens in use always at the maximum
aperture. In addition to the bright field, it provides preview of all necessary information for obtaining correct
exposure.
Microprism focusing spot
The standard viewing screen features a microprism center focusing spot which affords precise focusing most readily.
For details on how to secure focus, refer to the pertinent section.
Aperture display
The figures along the top edge of the finder frame denote the f-stops. The complete scale consists of 1.2, 1.4, 2, 2.8,
4, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22 and 32 settings. When the lens is mounted properly, the scale shifts to the right or left,
correspondingly, to display the maximum aperture of the lens in use always on the extreme right.
When the aperture ring of the lens is turned, the green pointer moves to display the preset aperture in green figure.

Shutter speed display
When the LED display pushbutton is depressed before or after film wind, the LED dot comes on to display the
shutter speed ensuring correct exposure in relation with the preselected aperture. If the LED dot comes on within the
range of 2000 (1/2000 sec.) and LT (4 sec.), correct exposure can be obtained as long as the shutter speed dial is set
