the finder; the second image moves to the right until it

coincides with the stationary outline in the rangefinder field.

You have now measured the distance by what is known as the

coincidence method.

Whenever vertical lines cut through the rangefinder field, you

can also measure the distance by the split-image method. This

is mode particularly easy by the sharp boundary of the

rangefinder field. The part of the subject that is displaced

sideways in this field moves across during focusing until the

image becomes continuous across the boundary of the frame.

In measuring the distance you have at the same time set the lens exactly to this distance.

The functioning of the optical depth-of-field indicator in the measuring field of the com-

bination range-viewfinder:

Objects outside depth-of-field

The double image lies within the

wide upper marks: Object is still

rendered sharp at f/16

Plane of sharp focus

The double

image lies within the narrow lower marks:

Object is still rendered sharp at f/5.6
