Kodak RETINA IIIC User Manual

The shutter speed and lens opening (coupled by
the exposure-value setting) can now be read oppo-
site the white dot I~DEX. For example: with an
exposure value of 12 the camera may be set for a
combination of lens opening f /8 and 1/60 second.
Suppose
this combination is not suitable for your
subject because you need a faster shutter speed,
such
as 1 /5 00 second, for a sports shot. In that
case, turn the shutter speed ring, from 1/60 to
1/500 second. This automatically adjusts the lens
opening to f / 2.8 and thus compensates for the
faster shutter speed time.
On the other hand, if you intend to take a picture
which calls for good depth of field, for example,
needing a lens opening such as fl 16, you must
rotate the speed ring in the same manner until the
figure 16 on the LENS OPENING SCALE is opposite
the white dot index. This changes the shutter speed
to 1/ 15 second. Such an exposure should, however,
only be
made from a firm support, for there is risk
of camera movement at exposure times of 1/30
second or longer .
