Yashica 635 - Manual (Page 7)

FOCUSING AND PICTURE
COMPOSITION
Your Yashica 635 is a twin-lens reflex
camera. It features a pair of perfectly
matched lenses, enabling you to focus
and compose your pictures most
effectively through the viewing lens
positioned directly above the taking lens.
1. Lift and open the Focusing Hood, as
illustrated.
2. Turn the Focusing Knob until the
image of your subject on the ground-glass
viewing screen appears sharply defined.
The clear focusing spot at the center of
the screen will enable you to secure
critical focus.

The viewing screen shows the exact field
covered by the taking lens. Therefore,
compose your picture within the viewing
frame.
MAGNIFIER
For critical focusing, use the magnifier
incorporated in the focusing hood.
1. To set the magnifier to viewing position,
press the center of the Focusing Hood half-
way as illustrated. Place your eye as close to
the lens as possible and secure critical focus.
2. Before closing the Focusing Hood, fold
away the magnifier by pressing the frame
down as shown in the illustration.
