The viewfinder displays
The good picture symbol
When you have a film pack in the camera and press the shutter button halfway, a display appears in the viewfinder to help you take the best possible picture.
When you see a number in the viewfinder, it tells you the distance to your subject (in feet or meters).This number will help you follow the distance recommendations throughout this book.
When you see a green “good picture” symbol, the condi- tions are right for taking a good picture. Press the shutter button the rest of the way.
When you see a flashing yellow “caution” symbol and hear a warning tone, you should correct a problem before taking the picture.The distance reading will help you identify the problem. When you see:
The number 1:Your subject is too close. Release the shutter button and stand at least 2 feet (.6m) from subject.
A number from 16 to 20:Your subject is beyond the flash range. Release the shutter button and move closer to your subject to keep within the 2 to 15 foot (0.6m to 4.6m) flash range.
A number from 2 to 15:The flash is off. Slide the flash switch up to turn the flash back on.
Note: Distance readings do not appear when your subject is beyond 20 feet (6.2m).
