only). For F6 cameras, compensate by selecting “Other screen” in Custom
Setting “b6: Screen comp.” and setting the EV level to -2.0 to +2.0 in 0.5 EV
steps. When using screens other than type B or E, “Other screen” must be
selected even when the required compensation value is “0” (no compensation
required). For F5 cameras, compensate using Custom Setting #18 on the camera
body. For F4-Series cameras, compensate using the Exposure Compensation Dial
for the focusing screen.
See instruction manual of the camera body for more details.
Blank box means not applicable. Since type M screen can be used for both macro-
photography at a 1:1 magnification ratio and for photomicrography, it has different
applications than other screens.
