the arrowheads Indicate interme-
diate speeds, for instance 64 and 80
ASA between 50 and 100 ASA.
ASA speed figures are marked In
red, DIN figures in green.
If you have set too high a film speed,
your pictures will be underexposed;
too low a speed setting yields overex-
posed shots.
Program automation
For all shots without flash set the
white arrowhead on the lens mount
(12) to A (automatic control).
At this A setting the camera auto-
matically selects a correct aperture
and shutter speed combination for the
subject brightness and film speed.
The f-stops, for instance 2.8 - 4 -
5.6 etc. on the aperture ring (12) are
only used for flash shots (page 18). If
you accidentally set the ring to an
aperture figure instead of to A, day-
light and other shots without flash -
e.g. bright interiors lit by artificial light
- may be wrongly exposed.
The electronic program of the
Minox 35 PL yields aperture/speed
combinations from f/16 to f/2.8 and
from 1/500 to 4 seconds at 100 ASA (up
to 15 seconds at 25 ASA or up to 1
second at 400 ASA).
