Lens and Shutter Functions
Shutter Speeds
The shutter speed selector ring is the ring located
closest to the front of the lens. The desired shutter
speed is set against the central lens index.
The white scale shows the shutter speeds, and the or-
ange scale the exposure values (EV).
The green F setting is used only when the lens is at-
tached to a Hasselblad camera in the 2000 series with
a focal plane shutter. The operation of the diaphragm
is not aected. The F setting can only be engaged/
disengaged when the green detent button is pressed
. When using the 503cx, cxi or 500C/M, the F setting
will cause exposure errors since the shutter remains
open.
Aperture
The aperture setting ring is the second closest ring
to the front of the lens. The aperture value is also set
against the central lens index.
CF lenses have an automatic diaphragm that stops
down to the preset working aperture immediately prior
to exposure .
Warning Signal

ing opposite the 1, 1/2, and 1/4s. This is to warn you
of possible exposure errors. The auxiliary shutter re-
mains open only as long as you maintain pressure
on the release button (see also page 12).
