AUTOMATTC CONTROL .Setting the automatic exposure control is me- chanically the same with all interchangeable lenses. {' Set the required shutter speed and adjust *lf the brightness of the field seen by the lens in use differs from that of the 50mm lens (seen by the meter), see "Hints on Using the Exposure Meter," page26 of the camera manual.

II FOCUSING ll RETINA RtrFLEX III and REFLEX S - Focusing, with any Retina interchangeable lens mounted on either of these cameras, is accomplished in the same manner as with the standard lens. Use either the rangefinder or - ground glass method as described in the cam- era manual. Remember, the finder image is ll visible only after operating the rapid wind lever. RETINA IIIS CAMERA - Retina inter- lll changeable lenses (28mm to 135mm), mounted on the Retina IIIS Camera. are auto- matically coupled with the rangefinder. you can therefore set the correct focus in the same manner as described in the camera manual for the standard lens. I VIEWING RETINA REFLEX III and REFLEX S _ Whichever interchangeable lens is attached to either of these cameras, the reflex finder with full-sized ground glass always shows the correct field of view. This field is free of parallax with all focal length lenses and at all distances. Viewing is always at the largest lens open- ing with a subsequent automatic "stop-down" to a previously selected lens opening.

6 www.butkus.us RETINA IIIS CAMERA-Look through the eyepiece of the camera. The outer, perma- nent viewframe shows the field of view for the 35mm wide-angle lens. When you attach lenses of from 50 to l35mm in focal length, the inner viewframe changes automatically to show the field of view for the lens in place. To show the field of view for the 28mm wide- angle lens, the Kodak Retina 28 Optical Finder is available to slide into the accessory clip on top of the camera. Parallax correction in the camera finder is automatic-the viewframes shift to compen- sate automatically for film-to-subject dis- tances. DEPTH OF FIELD All interchangeable Retina lenses have an au- tomatic depth-of-field indicator. you simply read off the nearest and farthest distances that will be in sharp focus opposite the two red pointers, as described in the camera manual.

THE T/AUX|LTARY LENSES These auxiliary lenses permit working at closer camera-to-subject distances. The minimum focusing distances for the 135mm and 85mm telephoto lenses are 14 and 6 feet, respectively. If you wish to use these lenses at closer distances, one of the following auxiliary lenses is required:

I www.butkus.us KODAK RETINA TELE AUXILIARY LENS T I /60-for 135mm telephoto lens pic- tures within the range from about 7 ft to 5 ft. KODAK RETINA TELE AUXILIARY LEN S T 11 /60-for 135mm telephoto lens pictures within the range from about 13 ft to 7 ft. KODAK RETINA TELE AUXILIARY LEI/S T 1/32-for 85mm telephoto lens pic- tures within the range from about 6 ft to 3 ft. Attach an auxiliary lens to one of the tele- photo lenses by screwing the threaded shoul- der of the auxiliary lens into the front of the telephoto lens mount. It is recommended that lens openings of l/5.e or smaller be used when possible. WITH THE RETINA REFLEX III ANd RE- FLEX S - Focus the camera either by means of the ground glass or rangefinder. To deter- mine depth-of-field, read off the distance fig- ure shown opposite the index mark on the lens; then, from the appropriate table on pages 12 to 17, find the depth-of-field for the lens opening in use.

WITH THE RETINA 11lS-You can meas- ure the exact subject distance with the camera rangefinder and the standard lens in place, or with a tape measure. Then find the required

10 www.butkus.us focus (distance) setting for the desired auxil- iary lens telephoto lens combination from 1 - the appropriate table on pages 12 to 17. For example, with the T 1, l60 auxiliary lens, you have measured the subject distance to be 72 inches. In the table on page 12, opposite 72 inches, 50 feet is shown as the setting for the camera focusing scale. Set the focusing scale for this distance. The table also shows field size and depth-of-field* at the various lens openings *Disregard the depth-of-field indicator on the camera with these auxiliary lenses.
