    Set the Dislonce
    On o cleor sunny doy, there is no need to set the distonce ring (2) to the
    exoci footoge. According to your subiect, simply set this ring to one of the
    three symbols which you will find between the footoge figures -
    O : PORTRAITS - corresponding to o distonce of 4Llzleet
    V : GROUPS - corresponding to o distonce of ll feet
    O : VIEWS - corresponding to o distonce of 33 feet
    only when the light is very poor, ond when toking flosh pictures (see p. 12)
    should you set the red triongle V to the exoct distonce by turning the
    distonce ring; this is porticulorly importont in the cose of portroits ond
    groups.
    You will find o row of operture numbers on both sides of the red index mork
    opposite the dislonce ring; ihedepth of field con be reod off here (see p. 13).
