MANUAL ZOOMING
The power zooming system obtains the zooming effect i n a fixed time. If
you want a faster or slower zooming effect, or when you aim at a more
exact composition, use the manual zooming ring .
• The viewfinder magnificatio'n is life-size when the focal length is at
15mm.
• Effective manual zooming techniques may be obtained by repeated ,
practice. In manual zooming, zoom with the finger placed on top of the
manual zooming lever. Do not pull the manual zooming lever up, because it
may twn to the macro position .
4 Focusing
Rotate the focusing ring while looking through the viewfinder till the
subject on the prism screen in the center of the viewfinder can be most
clearly seen. You can focus more easily and exactly at the longest focal
length.
• Once the. subject is focused, it will remain in focus even during zooming.
Therefore, it is advisable to focus first at maximum magnification
(telephoto) and then return to the required magnification.

Composition
The viewfinder is of the single-lens reflex
type
and has no parallax. All
that you see in the viewfinder will be exposed on the film. Decide your
composition in the full frame. The framing of the subject can be decided
by changing the distance to it or by zooming.
