Outstanding Features
Variable
~hutter
Opening Angle Mechanism
The variable shutter opening angle mecha-
nism sets the angle at 220° for XL filming,
150° for regular shooting and 150° - 0° for
fading effects. Exposure is automatically
set at either 220° or 150° to insure correct
exposure. The variable shutter opening
angle is a unique double-blade mechanism.
Synchronous Domle Sound Recording System
Shooting with synchronous sound record-
ing is possible because of a built-in pulse
generator and by using exclusive adapter,
stereo tape recorder for good quality
sound.
XL echanism Excellent for Indoor Shooting
It is possible to film under dim light con-
ditions, a dark room or at night because of
this camera's features such as its ac-
ceptability of highly sensitive film, 220°
shutter opening angle, exceptionally fast
lens, highly sensitive exposure meter. The
bright viewfinder an9
highly accurate
range-finder are additional advantages for
this kind of photography.
Viewfinder with Increased Brightness
An XL camera needs a viewfinder which is
easy to see for easy focusing under dark
conditions. In this camera, the viewfinder's
brightness has been doubled by increasing
the lens' effective aperture and exit pupil to
.allow a greater amount of light to reach the
viewfinder. Aberrations are
'
p roperly com-
pensated, the angle of the split-image
prism has been widened for easier viewing
and the accurate metering range ·has·
been
increased.
High Quality Lens for Faithful Color Reproduction
This is a new design, large aperture, zoom
lens which gives top performance for both
XL
and
general
shooting.
Especially,
aberration in the telephoto range has been
decreased and the ideal light transmission
factor has been attained for high resolu-
tion, high contrast and perfect color ba-
lance throughout the zooming ranqe, And
the
built-in
macro-cinematography
mechanism on the wide-angle end gives
you
a field-of-view of 33mm x 45rnm.
Changing from macro to zoom is always
