·For lenses with a maximum aperture of F1.7, the viewfinder displays either "1.4" or "2.0" as the maximum
aperture setting; for those with a maximum aperture of f/3.5, the maximum aperture setting in the viewfinder is
either "2.8" or "4.0".
·Always use a tripod for slow shutter speed to prevent picture blur.
When you desire the camera not to alter the aperture you initially set for certain purpose, disengage the
crossover system by sliding the crossover switch (A) out over the camera body. If the setting in use is not
proper, the fastest shutter speed (1000) indication will flash to indicate overexposure. The slowest speed (16 )
will flash for underexposure. When proper exposure is desired, turn the aperture ring until the flashing ceases.
