FOCUSING
The SR-T 200 and 201 have a microprism
focusing spot centered in the finder frame's mat
field, while the 202 has a microprism band
surrounding a split-image spot. To focus visually
with the microprism field, look through the
finder with the lens at full aperture and turn
the focusing collar until the subject image in
the field appears clear rather than broken up or
shimmering and blends with that on the mat
screen around it.
To use the split-image spot, turn the focus-
ing
collar until the upper and lower images are
exactly aligned with no broken lines between
them.
Out of focus
The most satisfactory focusing aid and
method depend upon the conditions and the
personal preference of the photographer. In
general, you may find a microprism field best
for subjects without vertical lines using lenses
from about 35mm through 100mm focal
length, the plain mat field for longer telephoto
lenses or macro or other work involving consi-
derable extension, and the split-image spot for
subjects with vertical lines and with wideangle
lenses.
The camera can also be scale-focused or
prefocused by aligning the desired value on the
distance scale with the index on the lens barrel.
