The film index for the film loaded in the camera can
be found in the instructions packed with the film and
on page 11. Turn the
FILM INDEX WHEEL
until the
appropriate index for the film in the camera is oppo-
site the pointer. For example: The daylight index of
Kodachrome Film Daylight Type is 10; set 10 in the
opening for daylight exposure of this film.
Make sure that the film index setting always cor-
responds to the index of the film used.

and thus compensates for the faster
shutter speed time.
On the other hand, if you intend to take a picture
which requires good depth of field (see page 23), need-
ing a lens opening such as
f
/16, rotate the shutter
speed ring until the black dot index on the lens open-
ing ring is at 16. This changes the shutter speed to
1/15
second. Such an exposure should, however, only
be made from a firm support, such as a table or tripod,
because there is a risk of camera movement at slow
shutter speeds.
If you want to set the exposure without reference
to the exposure value numbers, be sure to set the shut-
ter speed first and the lens opening afterwards. If you
reverse the procedure, changes in the shutter speed
will also change the lens open ing, due to the linkage
between the lens opening ring and the shutter speed
ring .
