  let us ossume thot the rongefinder  is
  focused on o subiect 5 feet, from the

 ihe subiect ot 5 feet distonce wiil

 'The mork B of the depth of field scole on the left, points to obout 4 feet
  . on the distonce scole ond the mork 8 on the righi points to obout 7 feet.
 Therefore, the depth of field where it will come out shorply is from 4
 {eet to 7 |eet. Conversely, when toking the subiects between 4 ond 7
 -feet, if focused ot 5 feet ond the operture is set at fl8, both subiects
  will come out shorply. This relotionship hos been mode into the toble

l.  The SEIKOSHA MX Shutter is fully synchronized equipment with three type contocts.
    ln generol, the flosh bulbs for lens shutter use moy be clossified into the F closs
   ond the M closs. The F closs is thqt which tokes up to   1 0 milli-second  (l / I C0
    sec.) before reoching the peok brightness ofter on electric current storts running.
   The M clcss tokes 20 milli-seconds  (li 50 sec.). This is colled o tirne log. Due to
    this reoson, in order to synchronize the peok brightness of the flosh bulb with the
     full opening of the shutter, synchronized contocts which corresponds io ihe cbove-
    mentioned conditions ore used, so os to effeciively  utilize the light from the flosh
   bulb. On ihe other hond, os the time log ond the flosh time is very short for the
    strobo-flosh (the electric flosh), the contoci must close ot iust the insioni when the
    shutter is fully openned.
