SIMPLE STEPS FOR TAKING PICTURES
Setting the Aperture
1. Open the Dust Barrier and set
the aperture lever ( mark) to the
F-number required.
2. Confirm the shutter speed in
the viewfinder, aiming at the sub-
ject.
(The arrows indicate parallax cor-
rection marks.)
If the shutter speed nee-
dle enters the striped, over-
exposure warning zone,
push the aperture lever
downward so that the nee-
dle points to "500" (1/
500 sec) or under.
If the needle points to
"30" (1/30 sec) or under,
be careful not to shake the
camera.
(To make full use of aperture con-
trol, see pages 13 & 14.)
