FEATURES
Standard type, suitable for general photography. Fast and accurate
focusing is done on the central microprism spot as well as on the sur-
rounding matte area. When a lens with a maximum speed of F5.6 or
slower is used, the microprism darkens and focusing must be made
on the matte area. The meter needle indicates proper exposures.
Suitable for general photography in conjunction with a standard or
telephoto lens. Focusing is done on the microprism spot as well as
on the
matte
area.
When
a
lens
with
a
maximum
speed
of F8 or
slower
is used, the microprism spot darkens. The meter needle indicates prop-
er exposures.
Suitable for general photography ensuring critical focusing, and ideal
for photographers who prefer the split-field and coincidence type
focusing. When a lens with a maximum speed of F5.6 or slower is
used, the split prism darkens. The meter needle indicates proper ex-
posures.
Suitable for general photography and ideal for photographers who
prefer a view field free from microprism or split prism and for those
who are accustomed to focus using matte area. Also suitable for super
telephoto photography and close-up photography in conjunction
with
macro
lenses
and
Auto
Bellows.

This transparent screen provides an exceptionally bright finder image.
Highly suitable for snapshots using wide angle lenses. The lack of
matte surface means depth-of-field effects cannot be ascertained.
The meter needle does not indicate proper exposures, because its
movement varies depending on the lenses used.
This screen provides an extremely bright finder image. Focusing is
done on the microprism spot. The lack of matte surface means depth
of-field effects cannot be ascertained and the meter needle does not
indicate proper exposures.
Developed primarily for use with super telephoto lenses, this clear
field screen provides an extremely bright finder image. The micro-
prism spot remains bright even with a lens whose maximum speed is
11. The lack of matte surface means depth-of-field effects cannot
be ascertained, the meter needle does not indicate proper exposures.
