OBTAINING CORRECT EXPOSURE
Your lens
is the
fixed-aperture type
and
will
not
couple with
the TTL
exposure meter-
ing system that
may be
built into some camera bodies.
To get the
correct exposure,
please refer
to the
stopped-down exposure measurement section
in the
camera's instruc-
tion manual.
Remember that even
if you set the
camera
to its top
shutter speed,
you
won't
be
able
to obtain correct exposure.
A
rule
of
thumb
is to use the
neutral density filter.
