Data panel displays
For the purpose of explanation, the diagram below shows all indicators that
light up on the LCD.
1. Pointers
Pointers light up to indicate measurement values (f-number) on an
analog scale. When using the memory function or other functions, up to
four pointers can be lit up at the same time, indicating two readings in
memory (two pointers), the average of these two values, and the latest
measurement value. The small digit to the right of the two-digit reading
(f-number) on the digital readout indicates a fractional value between
stops. The value shown on the analog display is rounded down or up to
the nearest 0.5 stops (0.2 stops is rounded down to 0, 0.3 and 0.7 stops
are rounded to 0.5, and 0.8 stops is rounded up to 1, i.e. the next full
stop).
lights up if a reading is under the meter's display range.
lights up if a reading is over the meter's display range.
2. Analog scale
Pointers mark FNo. (f-number) values. F-numbers are displayed by
pointers, to the nearest 0.5 stops.
3. Shutter speed/frame rate display
Displays the current shutter speed or frame rate, which is set with the
up/down key.
When shutter speed is between [1 stop: 1 sec., 1/2 stop: 0.7 sec., 1/3
stop: 0.6 sec.] and 45 sec., s is displayed; between 1 min. and 30 min.,
m is displayed.
Setting range: Shutter speed: 30 min. to 1/8000 sec. (1, 1/2, 1/3 stops)
Frame rate: 8 to 128 f/s
4. Film speed display
Displays the film speed, which is set using the ISO button and up/down
key. Alt is displayed when the meter is in mode.
Setting range: ISO 3 to 8000
5. Over-/under-range indicators
When a reading is over the meter's display range, blinks. When a
reading is under the meter's display range, blinks. When a reading is
over or under the display range, the display units (FNo.) and or
blink.
6. Digital readout
Displays the f-number (when display units are set to FNo.) or exposure
value (when display units are set to EV), in increments of 0.1 stops.
When measuring flash light, only the f-number (FNo.) is displayed.
When measuring brightness difference, readings are displayed in
▲▲EV.
Display range: f-number (FNo.) 1.0 to 90+0.9 stops
Exposure value (EV) -7.8 to 31.5
