I PIMA FOCUSING 11-os The MG comes equipped with a split-image/microprism focusing screen which provides a split-image center spot surrounded by a microprism collar on a matte field. You can focus using all three areas of the focusing screen. To focus with the split-image center spot: Simply turn the lens focusing ring until the broken image in the center spot of the viewfinder aligns as one. To focus with the microprism collar: When using the microprism collar surrounding the center spot, rotate the lens focusing ring until the "shimmering" effect in the collar area disappears. The matte field: This is quite convenient for focusing with small aperture long telephoto lenses. To focus, turn the focusing ring on the lens until the image appears sharp and crisp on the matte field. • 18
