AE (Automatic Exposure) Photography
The aperture priority metering device is
incorporated into the rangefinder
system. The correct shutter speed for
the preselected aperture will
automatically be determined.
1. Align "A" on the shutter speed dial
with the white line index mark on the
camera body.
2. Be sure to set the exposure
compensation scale to 0. (See page23)
3. Set the aperture to the desired 'f'
number according to conditions.
4. When the shutter release button is
slightly touched, an LED indicating
proper exposure will automatically light
in the viewfinder.

* When "" LED blinks, it indicates
over-exposure. Rotate the aperture ring
to stop down to a smaller f/stop until an
LED indicates proper exposure.
* Blinking "LT" indicates underexposure:
rotate the aperture ring until the LED
stops blinking to increase exposure.
* Illuminating "LT" indicates that the
shutter is set for a relatively long
exposure from between 1 to 4 seconds.
When taking pictures at such slow speeds
you must be able to hold the camera very
steady, or increase aperture to obtain
higher shutter speeds, or best of all, use a
sturdy tripod.
• Under AE (automatic exposure) or AEL
(AE lock), the LED display in the
viewfinder will continue to operate as
long as the shutter release button is
touched slightly. When you take your
finger off the button, the LEDs will go
out.
* If you cannot get close enough to your
subject for another meter reading, make
substitute measurements by pointing the
camera to light and dark areas and
calculate a mean exposure value or try
taking a reading off your palm.
AE Lock(AEL)Photography
The AEL position is very useful when
making selective exposure measure-
ments of important subject areas which
are not in the center of the finder image
when faced with difficult lighting
conditions.
1. Rotate the shutter speed dial until
"AEL" aligns with the white index mark on
the camera body.
2. Position the important part of your
subject in the central square of the
viewfinder - this will establish the correct
exposure. Then touch the shutter release
button slightly and an LED will light
indicating the correct exposure.
3. In above state, the exposure reading
will be memorized. After adjusting for
composition as desired, release the
shutter.
