©=Excellent focusing 0=Acceptable focusing

Slight vignetting or moire phenomenon affects screen image, but film image shows no traces of this.

(S)=Acceptable focusing

Split-image rangefinder, microprism or cross-hair area is dim; focus on the surrounding matte area.

• = Exposure measurement is not possible; lens/screen combination permits focusing operation only.

( )= Indicates degree of exposure compensation needed for F4-series cameras (Center- Weighted metering only). For F4-series cameras, compensate using the Exposure Compensation Dial for the focusing screen. (See the F4/F4s instruction manual, page 78.)

Blank box means not applicable. Since type M screen can be used for both macrophotography at a 1:1 magnification ratio and for photomicrography, it has different applications than other screens.

For the K2, B2 and E2 focusing screens, refer to the columns on the K, B and E screens, respectively. For details, also refer to the specific camera's instruction manual.

MINIMUM APERTURE LOCKMust A

For programmed auto or shutter-priority auto shooting, use the minimum aperture lock lever to lock the lens aperture at f/22.

1.Set the lens to its minimum aperture (f/22).

2.Slide lock lever in the direction of the aperture ring and so the white dot on the lever aligns

with the orange dot. (See illust.)

To release the lock, slide the lever in reverse direction.
