VIEWFINDER INDICATIONS

• Regular size color prints may cut off what appears on the

extreme edges of the film frame. Compose your picture with
a margin of safety at the edges.

• The frame number on the film will be upside down in relation

to the picture. Keep this in mind when ordering copies of
prints.

MEMO

• The selected focus point is superimposed in red (the surrounding area

is also dimly lit) in the viewfinder when the shutter release button is
pressed halfway down. The superimpose function can be canceled
using the custom function [CF6]. See pages 134 and 138.
