EXPOSURE SETTING
Look through the viewfinder and press the Activator Switch. You will notice that only the upper or lower half
of the green ( O ) symbol is
visible.
Turn the Aperture Ring until the entire symbol appears, indicating correct
exposure setting.
The Activator Switch will automatically return to the original position when the Shutter Release Button is
pressed.
* If only the upper half ( n ) of the symbol is visible, it warns against over-exposure. To achieve correct
exposure setting, turn the Aperture Ring until the entire symbol appears. If it fails to come on even when the
Aperture Ring is turned all the way, use a faster shutter speed or an ND filter to compensate for over-exposure,
* If only the lower half ( v ) of the symbol lights, it warns against under-exposure. To achieve correct exposure,
reset the aperture. If the entire symbol fails to come on even when the Aperture Ring is turned all the way, use a
slower shutter speed, or change to flash photography.
Preselection of Aperture.
When taking pictures in subdued light, it may be easier and better to preselect the
aperture.
1) Set the Aperture Ring to the desired aperture.
2) Press the activator Switch, then turn the Shutter Speed Control Dial until the entire symbol appears in the
viewfinder.
