If the wrong kind of film is being used, in-
correct exposure will be the result. Using high
speed film for daylight shooting, for instance,
may cause overexposure. Please make sure that
you select the right kind of film.
Exposure Adjustment
When using EE to film a person at a window or
with a blue sky or snow in the background, the
main subject becomes underexposed. To avoid
this, please use the exposure adjustment knob to
adjust exposure. The adjustment of exposure has
two settings of 0.5 and 1.5 fl stop. A person at a
window will need 0.5 f/stop and a person with a
blue sky or snow in the background will need
1.5 f/stop. However, the necessary adjustment
differs depending on the intensity of light. It is
advisable to control the aperture manually when
you need the exact exposure or when shooting
against a specially strong light. In this case,
please meter the exposure of the subject and the
