Setting the Film Speed
The film speed is set via the ISO selector. This is
divided into ISO/ASA settings from 16 - 1000.
The equivalent in DIN ratings can be found using
the table below. Certain films require compensa-
tion for differences in reflection . In these in-
stances, the compensation is made by changing
the film speed selector setting. The amount of
compensation has to be determined by experi -
ment.
NOTE: The flash unit must always be set to
the "TIL" position .
