[Determining the shutter speed]
The Mamiya 6 MF has an aperture-prior-
ity, AE lens shutter. Once the aperture and
film speed are set, the AE meter selects a
proper shutter speed in relation to the set
aperture. Under the manual photographic
mode, proper shutter speed is indicated by
a red LED within the
viewfinder.
1. To set the diaphragm to a desired aper-
ture, rotate the aperture ring (A) until the
appropriate figure is aligned with the cent-
ral red index line (B). (Click stops are pro-
vided at each engraved aperture number
but the diaphragm can be set also for in-
termediate stops.)
2. Rotate
the shutter speed dial and select
either the A(AE) or manual
mode for photo-
graphing.
Rotate the dial to align it with the white
index line
(-)
on the camera body.
*
At A or AEL, the
dial is locked.
The lock can be
released by
pressing
the AE lock release button
(A)
in
the center of
dial.

In any
position
other than A or AEL, the shutter
speed dial
moves
freely from click-stop
to
click-
stop: it
must
be set on a specific
click-stop
and
cannot be used at an
in
between setting.
*
lntermediate Diaphragm settings (between click
stops) are possible Intermediate Shutter Speeds
(between engraved numbers) are not
possible
Shutter speed dial:

Based on the aperture setting, the
camera automatically selects the shut-
ter speed.
AEL; AE lock
The camera memorizes the aperture
when shutter release
button
is
touched slightly so that, even when
the position of the subject or
camera
changes, a picture can be taken with
the initial aperture setting and is not
affected by changes in light.
B.
Bulb
exposure
At this position, the shutter will remain
open as long as the shutter release
button is pressed.
Shutter controls
On the shutter speed dial the yellow
numbers indicate the number of whole
seconds while the white numbers indi-
cate fractions of seconds.

while 125 indicates 1/125 seconds.
