The Focusing Screen (53) is of the Micro Dia Prism type or has a built-in rangefinder of the Split-Image type. The focusing method is the same for both systems.

With Micro Dia Prism Type: While the finder is being looked into, turn the Focusing Ring (11) so that the image in the Micro Dia Prism at the center of the field of view may be clearly seen. If it is out of focus, the image will look rugged. With Split-Image Type: While the finder is being looked into, turn the Focusing Ring (11) so that the horizontally sectioned halves of the image in the split-image area at the center of the field of view may been seen as a single image. If it is out of focus, the upper and lower halves will look slipped out of place.

•When a taking lens darker than f/4.5 is used or when close-ups are taken, it will become difficult to focus the lens with the Micro Dia Prism or Split-Image at the center. Focus the lens, using the Mat Plane (54) around the center.

•In the case of the split-image type, train your camera, the long side upright, for focusing when you take pictures of a subject with paralleled lines.
