"Frame" Your Subject
Since
the
MINOX
viewfinder
shows you
the
exact
picture
area,
you
can
easily
compose
your
picture
before
you
actually
take
it,
so
that
unimportant
or
disturbing
details
are
omitted
right
at
the
start.
Advance
planning
of
composition
saves
extra
work
in
enlarging,
and
it gives you
precisely
the
picture
you
want
every
time.
Close-ups
of
Small Things
There is a
special
fascination
in
close-ups.
A frame-filling
picture
of
a
single
blossom
showing
the
delicate
details
of
each
petal
can
be
more
exciting
than
showing
a
whole
acre
of
flowers.
Therefore:
Get
CLOSE
to
the
subject!
Your MINOX offers you
the
great
advantage
that
you
can
get
as
close
as
8 inches
without
any
supplementary
equipment
or
extra
lenses.
Make
the most
of
this
excellent
feature
. Always use
the
measuring
beads
of
the
safety
chain
to
determine
the
correct
distance,
as
the
depth
of
field
at
close
range
is
very
limited. For
instance,
when
the
distance
scale
is
set
at
1 ft., the
depth
extends
only
from
11
inches to
13
inches.
Therefore,
accurate
distance
setting
is a must
for
extreme
close-ups.
Remember
also
that,
at
distances
between
8
and
10
inches,
the
picture
area
lies a
frame-width
within
the
luminous
frame
of
the
viewfinder.
