©= Excellent focusing

• = Acceptable focusing

The split-image rangefinder, microprism or cross-hair area is dim. Focus on the sur- rounding matte area.

0 = Acceptable focusing

Slight vignetting (or moire phenomenon, in the case of the microprism) affects the screen image. The image on the film, however, shows no trace of this.

•= Exposure measurement not possible; lens/screen combination permits only focus- ing operation.

()= Indicates degree of exposure compensation. Blank means not usable.
