Checking the Exposure Meter Needle
1
Aim the camera at the subject and check the position of the
exposure meter needle inside the viewfinder.
You may pull the
trigger or press the shutter release button if the needle is pointing
inside the range of the f/stop scale.
2
Exposure with the electric eye is improper if the needle is point¬
ing to either of the red marks on both sides of the f/stop scale.
If the needle is pointing to the red mark on the leftside it means
under-exposure, and so the lighting must be increased.
If the needle is pointing to the red mark on the right side it means
over-exposure, and so a neutral density (ND) filter must be attached
to restrict the light intensity.
4
Be 'sure that the shutter lock dial is set at "R".
Otherwise,
the meter needle will not move.
