Ttl Metering And Automatic Shutter - Honeywell ESII User Manual

TTL METERING AND AUTOMATIC SHUTTER

For full-aperture reading, be sure that the stop-down lever is
DOWN.
The broader figures 2, 4 and 8 in the shutter speed calibration
mean 2, 4 and 8 seconds respectively. The electronic shutter of the
ES II is guaranteed to work properly down to 8 seconds.
After cocking the rapid wind lever, press the shutter release button
lightly to switch on the electric circuit. The meter needle in the
viewfinder indicates the correct shutter speed.
If the needle does not drop to "1000", stop down the lens
diaphragm.
CAUTION:
At slow speeds — slower than 1/30 sec. — put your
camera on a solid support or use a tripod to prevent
camera movement.
Depress the shutter release button completely when ready to take
your picture. When the shutter is released and your finger is off
the shutter button, the meter circuit is off and the needle will
return to the top of the scale.
