in
whole
seconds.
This
scale
is intended to tell
you
only
how long the exposure
release
must'
be de-
pressed. The green letter B stands for
"Brief
Time."
When
you set "B,"
or
any
of the
green
numbers to
the index mark, the shutter opens
when
the expo-
sure
release is pressed,
and
closes
when
it is re-
leased.':'
Here is
an
example
(see
illustration):
Suppose
f
/
4 at a shutter speed
of 1
second
was
a
correct
exposure.
If, however,
you
want to use
f
/11
to ob-
tain
adequate
depth of field, turn the
shutter speed
ring
until
f
/11
is opposite the index. The
green
number
"8"
opposite the
same index
indicates that
the exposure release
be held down
for 8
seconds.
There is no number
2
in the
series
of
green
num-
bers
because its place is taken by the letter B. If,
in
the
above example, you
wish to use
f
/
5.6,
the expo-
sure would
be
2 seconds.
·The
Kodak Metal Cable Release No. 5 screws into the under side
of
the
exposure release.
This makes
it
easier to open and close the shutter
without
moving the
comero
.
