You
may set
either
shutter
speed
or aperture
first. If
you
set shutter
speed first,
measure
the light and
the
meter
needle will indicate
the
correct
aperture
for that speed.
If
you
set aperture
first,
adjust the
shutter dial,
while measuring
the
light,
until
the meter
needle
coincides
with
the
aperture
you
have
pre-selected.
Shutter
speed
is
usually
determined
by the motion
of the
subject.
If
you
are
compelled
to use
a
fast
shutter speed,
1/500 for example,
set it on
the shutter
dial.
The
dial
is
coupled
to the
meter
and
automaically
adjusts the meter's
light
value scale
to
coincide
with
the
shutter speeds.
In
other
words,
the meter
will
indicate corretc
aper-
ture
for
any
one
of
a
variety of
shutter speecls.
1/500 sec. for fast
moving objects.
