Film speed displays in the viewfinder

Depending on the film loaded, the film speed set-
ting and the exposure correction setting, different
displays light up or flash in the viewfinder for 2 s
each time the camera is turned on with the main
switch, before the normal exposure meter dis-
plays then appear.
If the camera electronics detect an incorrect set-
ting, the following display flashes to warn you: For
example, if the dial is set to "DX" but no DX-coded
film is loaded or a film with damaged or unread-
able identification, "1 1 0 0 0 0 " flashes as an indication
that the exposure control is assuming a film speed
of ISO 100/21°. By contrast, if the dial is set to an
invalid position between "DX" and the manual val-
ues, "A A S S A A " flashes for the entire display duration
of 16 s, i.e. the exposure metering is not displayed.
In this case, exposure is once again as for
ISO 100/21°.
The table on the next page lists the different
operating statuses in detail.
