Provided that an external exposure meter is used, the exposure ratio need only be taken into account when the lens aperture ring is used to set aperture.

AThe Exposure Indicator

If a shutter speed other than “bulb” or “time” is selected, the exposure indicator in the viewfinder shows whether the photograph would be under- or over-exposed at current settings (if Lo or Hi is displayed, the indicators show the amount of under- or over-exposure). Depending on the option chosen for Custom Setting b2 (EV steps for exposure cntrl.,

0211), the amount of under- or over-exposure is shown in increments of 1/3 EV or 1/2 EV (the illustrations below show the display in the viewfinder when 1/3 step is selected for Custom Setting b2). If the limits of the exposure metering system are exceeded, the displays will flash.
