The speed Grip G has been specifically designed and developed as an
 integral accessory for the zenza Bronica GS-l single lens reflex camera.
when attached on the firm winding crank side of the camera main
body, the camera can be held with the right hand only, as well as per-
mitting thumb-stroked film winding and shutter release action with the
film winding lever and shutter release button on the grip, thus leaving
the left hand free for focusing the lens. Furthermore, when the Speed
Light Gl is used on the hot shoe, there is also auto-flash control
with direct metering at the firm surface. And, when used in combina-
tion with eye-level type finders, there is shooting speed and handling
ease comparable to the smaller 35mm single lens reflex for taking both
horizontal and vertical formats.              U.,3
To get best results from the Speed Grip G, please read?ie ipstruction
manual carefully before you even touch the accessory, as this will in-
crease your pleasure in using it.
