Memo Holder
A special holder is provided on the camera back for convenient storage of information pertinent to the photography. A piece of paper or the end-flap torn from the film carton can be inserted to serve as a reminder of the film type, film speed and number of exposures.
Setting the Film Speed
The camera’s exposure meter must be adjusted to the speed of the film in use to ensure correct measurement; thus, a filmspeed scale (ASA graduations) and an index ring are provided on the finder. To adjust, lift the milled ASA film-speed index ring and turn it until the red index triangle is aligned with the
ASA value for the film in use. The meter is sensitive across the full range of from ASA 12 to ASA 6400. The film-speed dial has two dots between each pair of numbers for intermediate settings such as 64, 80, 125, etc.
