Lenses – R lenses

Exposure Metering – Selective metering 7 mm diameter metering field, outlined in the viewfinder. Multi-pattern metering 6 fields; the exposure level in the multi-pattern metering mode can be changed by ±0.7 EV in 1/10 EV steps.
Center-weighted integral metering.
Center-weighted integral TTL metering for flash exposures with dedicated flash units. Selective TTL test flash exposure metering prior to the actual exposure with any flash unit.

Exposure Control Modes – Manual setting of shutter speed and aperture stop using the light balance in the viewfinder ; A Aperture priority automatic exposure control ; P Variable program automatic exposure control ; T Shutter speed priority automatic exposure control ; F Selective TTL flash exposure metering prior to the actual exposure ; The operating mode selector dial can be locked in any setting.

Viewfinder magnification 0.75 x with a 50 mm lens set at infinity and 0 diopter correction.

Shutter and Shutter Release – Shutter Microprocessor-controlled metal leaf shutter that runs vertically. Shutter speeds Manual settings: 16 s to 1/8000 s in half steps, B for time exposures of any duration, X = 1/250 s for flash synchronization. Automatic setting stepless from 32 s to 1/8000 s with all automatic exposure control modes. Shutter release – Three stages: Activation – metered value storage – release. Integrated standard thread for cable releases. Self-timer Two delay times : 2 s or 12 s, red LED signal glows while the timer is running down. Hinged mirror partially transmitting, with 17 coated layers (70 % reflection, 30 % transmission). Mirror pre-release By means of a separate switch, the shutter release button can be used to raise the mirror and to set the spring-back iris diaphragm of the attached lens to the working aperture without releasing the shutter; the shutter is only released when the release button is pressed a second time.
