safety catch holds them in place immo-

vably.

Eyecup

A flexible eyecup is available to shield the

eye from stray light. This makes the view-

finder image still more brilliant and permits

more accurate focusing.

The eyecup can also be used for fitting a

correction lens.

Eyecup, Order No 14215

*)Caution: If the shutter is not completely swung back, it may

cover up the display in the lower margin of the viewfinder

frame.

Eyepiece shutter

The silicon photodiode of the exposure

meter is located in the base of the camera,

where it is protected from stray light.

Normally, therefore, there is little likeli-

hood of light entering the viewfinder eye-

piece and affecting exposure-meter rea-

dings, except when you are not using the

viewfinder, e.g. for taking photographs from

a tripod, when direct sunlight or bright

artificial light may enter through the eye-

piece. To prevent this, turn the knob of the

eyepiece shutter

at the left of the eye-

piece in the direction of the arrow. When

the shutter is in place, a white triangle

appears in the eyepiece.
