When
moving
the
speed
ring, make
sure
that the
white
dot index does
not
indicate a
larg
er
lens
opening than
f
15.6
or
f
/
4,
depending
on
which
lens is
in use. Otherwise the picture
will
be underexposed
.
Make
sure
that the component lens
is
securely
seated
at
all

WIDE·ANGLE SCALE
gl
h
For wide-angle effects with your
camera,
use the
Kodak Retina Curtar Lens Component, 35mm
115.6
or
114
(for
Kodak Retina Cameras with
Xenon C
Lenses).
To attach
the
lens
to the cam-
era, place the red
dot
opposite the red
dot
on the
lens
opening ring; then press
in
and turn
the
lens
clockwise until the snap lock
engages (red
dot
lines up
with white dot).
To focus the Cm'tar
lens
correctly, get the cam-
era-to-subject distance with the rangefinder and
note the distance figure opposite the in-
dex on the focusing scale for the
stand-
ard
lens.
Now, transfer the distance
figure obtained with the rangefinder
to the
WIDE-ANGLE SCALE
(black
figures
on chrome) by turning the focusing
knob to bring the appropriate figure to
the triangular
WIDE-ANGLE INDEX.
Like the telephoto lens, the wide-
angle
lens
carries a color-keyed scale
for
indicating
depth of field
only.
