CONTROLLING THE WORKING
RANGE OF ELECTRIC EYE
In EE operation, the working range of the electric
eye can be controlled so as to perform panning
effectively
under
conditions
of
extremely
bright
and dark contrast. The darkness of the dark part
is more emphasized while giving the proper ex
posure on the bright part. It is ideal for panning
in a dark room with a spotlighted subject or for
panning when including a counter-light part.
By turning the aperture control ring towards “C"
the electric eye can be controlled to function only
on the smaller aperture opening side than the set
aperture stop. For instance, if the aperture is set
at f/4, the electric eye will function only on the
smaller aperture opening side than f/4, i.e., f/4-
f/22.
PHOTOGRAPHY BY MANUAL
APERTURE OPERATION
Photography by manual operation is possible by
setting the auto-manual switch at “MANUAL". In
manual operation, any desired aperture stop can
be set by turning the aperture control ring while
looking at the aperture scale inside the viewfinder.
Use this method when shooting against the light
or when you wish [to stress high key or low-key^
