the P-G-S
scale
Ordinarily, to set the distance from camera - to
subject, you
wou ld need a range finder. Bpt the
Autowide provides a faster method - with the
P-G-S or Zone focusing scale_
II
When photographing Scenery , set the P-G-S
dial at S_
6
For example: At 10
feet, say your F stop
shutter speed win-
dow re ads f:5.6. You
are in focus from 7 feet to 22>:
feet ( betw een 15and 30 ), or at
f: 11 you are in focus from 6
feet to about infinity.
This is particu-
larly important
when you are us -
ing the l arger le ns
openings. At f:2.8 with
the lin ear distance scale
set at 10 feet, you have a
smaller range of sharp
focus 8. to 12 .
