Exposure - Zero Image Zero 135 Instruction Manual

Calculating the exposure time:
Our camera comes with an Exposure Scale (G). If you have a light
meter, you can make use of the Exposure Scale (G) to calculate the
exposure time easily. The numbers on the outer ring of the
Exposure Scale (G) are the exposure time ranging from 1/8000 of a
second to 15 hours and numbers on the inner (movable) dial
indicate f/stop number setting. These range from f/1.4 to f/500.
1. Use a light meter to get a reading of the scene you wish to
photograph. Choose the f/stop that is aligned most closely with a
given exposure time. (For example, the reading is f/5.6, 1/500
seconds).
2. Look on the inside ring and
find the f/stop selected from
the light meter (f/5.6 in this
example). Turn the dial until
that f/stop matches with the
correct exposure time (1/500
seconds in this example).
3. Now find the f/stop of your
camera on the inside dial (f/
stop of the 135 camera is f/
138). It will be aligned with
the estimated exposure time
of the photograph you wish
to take, i.e. 1 second in this
example.
