posure to be measured very easily thanks
to its pointer-tracking system which is
based on the guide mark.

How to set the film speed

Reading out the exposure

of the subject, the pointer (2) deflects in accord-
ance with the brightness of the subject. To read
out the exposure, rotate the dial ring (11) and
set so that the pointer (2) is aligned with the
center of the guide mark. The correct exposure
will be the combination of the shutter speed
scale (5) unit on the dial and the f/number scale
(6) unit.

In the illustrated example,

/5.6 will be the correct (9)
exposure at 1/125 sec. and if
