While
looking
through the viewfinder,
compose
your
photo
with
the
main subject in
the center
to assure
correct exposure
.
Then turn the focusing ring
@
of
the lens until the subject looks
clear.
The FG employs
the
standard
Type K focusing
screen
for all-purpose
photography.
For precise pinpoint
focusing
for sub-
jects with distinct
contours, use the
central split-
image rangefinder
and turn the
focusing
ring until the
split
image becomes
whole.
For rapid focusing and
for
subjects
with indistinct outlines, use the micro-
14
prism
collar
and turn the
focusing
ring until the
shim-
mering image becomes
sharp.
When doing close-ups
or macrophotography or
shooting
with telephoto
lenses of maximum apertures of approx
.
f/4 .5 or
smaller,
the split-image
spot
and microprism collar
are
likely to
darken.
Therefore, use the matte outer
field
and
turn the focusing
ring
until the image
be-
comes sharp
.
