INSTRUCTIONS

2
The Canon Servo EE Finder is interchanged with the
pentaprism section
of the Canon F- ', cou pled to the
full aperture metering mechanism and preset to the
proper f/stop
automatically with shutter speed pri-
ority. It is vibration- and shock-proof, and has fast
response
to light intensity because of the use of a
servo-
motor . Metering information can be read off
inside the viewfinder. Since the Centr al Emphasis
Metering system is used, a most satisfactory
exposure
can be obtained when shooting scenery
that includes the sky.
Unmanned continuous shooting, such as recording
for ecological and other experiments, is possible
through the combi ned use of the Motor Drive Unit .
