Photographic area covered
Within the viewfinder the subject area covered is indicated 
by the visible bright frame. Parallax is automatically 
compensated for according to the subject-to-lens distance. 
The composition will be within in the lines of the bright 
frame “A” for 6 x 7 format and “B” for 135 panoramic 
format. 83% of the field of view is visible at infinity, and 
100% is visible at the minimum focusing distance. The 
appropriate bright frame area is automatically indexed 
upon lens interchange. 
However, for 43 mm, 50 mm lens, an exclusive viewfinder 
must be used. Also, for composition check purpose, an 
exclusive viewfinder for 150 mm lens is sold separately.
