in day-to-day shooting. Therefore, it is not man-
datory to use the AE memory lock button at all.
However, color transparency film has extremely
small exposure latitude and requires near perfect
exposure to produce good results. When taking color
slides, the use of the AE memory lock button in the
special situations previously described is strongly
recommended,

more accurate surface to meter than the palm of
your hand. It may be purchased very inexpensively
from your local camera dealer and carried with you
