Shutter Opening Angle Dial

The camera's shutter consists of blades which
form a disc shape with an opening. The angle of
the opening is variable from 0° to 220“. At
the position of the sun symbol -JoS- , the
opening angle is 150° and exposure time is

relatively short. At the position of the window

symbol

, the opening is at its widest

angle of 220“ and exposure time is long to let
more light on the film for XL filming in dim light.

A lever around the shutter opening angle dial can

be set to other symbolic positions. The "0" and

'C" positions are for fading. The 1^ sym

bol and the button at the center of the dial on

the 1014XL-S are for lap dissolve.

Filming Mode Dial

The normal setting for this dial, whether for

sound or silent filming, is the 'P.S " position.

This position allows normal filming and, when

used with various other controls, automatic fade-

in/fade-out and lap dissolve of both picture and

sound. (See pages 40 —41 for more details.)
