Start
Zoom formats cannot be selected. The I.I. full format of 40 cm is always select-
ed.
The primary collimation is not set automatically to the full format, but must be
adapted according to the object.
If a left / right dominant or both dominants are selected, the system switches
over automatically to the central circular dominant if the preselected dominant is
covered by the filters, since this would inevitably result in a faulty exposure.
