dual
LED's on
the shutter speed scale
indicate
speeds above
1/30
sec. The LED
below
"30"
designates speeds of

sec.
When the over-range indica-
tor lights, the shutter
will
lock to prevent
overexposure.
Lighting of
the.
under-range
LED
indicates
use of a shutter speed longer
than one second. For
either,
the aperture or
other conditions shou Id be
adjusted
so that
an LED lights within the scale's range.
NOTE
• When the
over-range
indicator lights, be sure
not
to
depress the operating button while
adjusting the aperture
or other conditions
.

cause
the
shutter

Eyepiece cap
For remote or unmanned operation or when
the camera is
set
on a
support and
used without
viewing on automatic mode or manual speeds
longer than
1
sec.,
be sure to attach the
eyepiece cap as shown
.
This will prevent un-
wanted light from
entering
through the eye-
piece
and affecting the meter reading and
exposure
when the
eyepiece is
not being
shield-
ed
by the photographer's head, as
it
normally
would be.
The eyepiece cap has a slot that allows
threading it on the camera strap to avoid loss
and keep it handy for use.
