Light Measuring Range of the Exposure Meter
The measuring range is EV 1.5-EV17 (ASA 100,
with F1.2 55mm lens). The list above summarizes
the lowest measurable limits in dealing with ex-
treme low light conditions.
CAUTION: If the aperture ring or shutter speed
ring is turned below the limits in the list, with ex-
tremely low lighting or the selector lever OFF,
the needle sometimes moves, but the meter is not
functioning.
