Congrats Bill!
It's a really cool little camera to use.
I can concur on the meter. It works perfectly.
Probably good to leave it in this forum;) _________________ Moderator |

Hey William you can use the auxilary VF from your Electro GT if you don't have another.
The tele framlines are roughly 62 mm but will give you somewhere to start with.
I think I remember that you have the GT set with Aux lenses
Anyway I have used that finder with pretty good luck for my BESSA and 50 Yashinon lens. It's all good fun _________________ Moderator |

No need of coffee
The number in red indicates the focus distance you need to set on your lens
The number in blue indicates from what nearest distance your photo will be in focus (the other end is infinity).
eg. you mount a 28mm lens at the aperture of f/8
the table indicates that you need to focus your lens at 3.2 meters approx., and that your photos will render sharp objects from 1.6 meters approx. until infinity. _________________ Orio, Administrator
