LOOKING AT METER INSIDE VIEWFINDER

F-NUMBER FOR CORRECT EXPOSURE: When the Meter Needle (45) stops within the range of

correct exposure, the f-number on the aperture scale (47) to which the meter needle points is the aperture to

which the taking lens will be set when the shutter is released for a shot.

CORRECT EXPOSURE RANGE: For an AR lens which is not f/1.2 in brightness, the Mark Indicating the

F-number (44) at the Full Lens Opening shows the f-number at the full opening of the lens used on your

camera. If the meter needle is aligned with this red mark, pictures will be under-exposed. The mark

indicating the f-number at the full opening of the lens win move down if the meter is not coupled. In other

words, the mark will also show the range where the meter is coupled. In EE picture-taking, therefore, the area

sandwiched between the upper and lower red marks is the correct exposure range.

INDICATION OF SHUTTER SPEED SCALE: The speed at which the shutter will be released is

indicated on the Shutter Speed Scale (42) in the lower part of the viewfinder

MANUAL INDICATOR MARK: When the EE device is released and the camera is set to manual picture-

taking or when the stopped-down metering system is used, the Manual Aperture Indicator Mark (43) "M"

will appear over the meter window, showing that a picture is not to be taken under EE system.

INDEX POINT FOR STOPPED-DOWN METERING: For stopped-down metering, the meter needle will

be brought in line with the Index Point for Stopped-down Metering (41) to secure a correct exposure. (Refer
