Manual
exposure control
Manual
expos ure is used in
the
fo
ll
ow ing
situa-
tions:
1.
Wh
en a
photograph is to be taken
at a
certain
shutter speed,
regard
less of
the
ex pos ure meter
needle indication.
2.
When the
shutter
speed is
set
by making
a
stop-down
measurement.
3.
Wh
en
Bulb(B)
ex pos ure
is being used
for
time
exposures.
4.
When
a
flashlight
is
used.
5.
When
a
special
photographic
technique
is to
be
employed,
such
as
repro-copy
photography
and
macro photography.
To
make
manual
control,
press
the shutter speed
dial
lock in
the center of the shutter speed
dial,
and
turn the
dial
and align the
desired
shutter speed
graduation
to the indicator mark
.
In manual
ex-
posure
control,
intermediate speeds
between
graduations cannot be
used
.
Be
sure
to
set
the dial at
click-stopped
posi-
tions. At this time, the green
shutter needle
in the viewfinder indicates the set shutter speed,
and
the shutter operates
at
the indicated
sh
utter
speed
when
released.
In
case of
manual
exposure control, the
black
needl
e
in
the viewfinder,
indicates the
shutter
speed
which results in the
correct exposure
in
relation to the aperture setting at
the
time.
Thus, when
the two
needles
meet
by
adjusting
either
the
aperture
ring
or the shutter
speed,
a correct
exposure will
be
obtained.
