Photographic area covered

Within the viewfinder the subject area covered is indicated by the visible bright frame. Parallax is automatically compensated for according to the subject-to-lens distance. The composition will be within in the lines of the bright frame “A” for 6 x 7 format and “B” for 135 panoramic format. 83% of the field of view is visible at infinity, and 100% is visible at the minimum focusing distance. The appropriate bright frame area is automatically indexed upon lens interchange.

However, for 43 mm, 50 mm lens, an exclusive viewfinder must be used. Also, for composition check purpose, an exclusive viewfinder for 150 mm lens is sold separately.
