The
moving
range
.of
the
aperture
needle
inside
the
viewfinder
changes
according
to
the
lens speed.
Thus,
it
will not always
move
vertically
the
full
length of
the
view-
finder.
Change
the
shutter
speed
when
the
aperture
needle
cannot

needle.
f,
When
the
shutter
is
set on.the
high
speed
side,
the
v

downward.
When it
is
set at a
slower
speed,
the
needle
moves
upward.
When the
shutter
is set
at a
slow
speed outside
the meter
coupling
range,
the
meter
needle
swings
all
the
way
up and
the

ap-
pears

and
metering
is
not
possible
even if
the
