[I'm trying to use Andy's settings . Have a Coopix 4500, Eagle Optics Raven straight through 20/60, Simplicity Tool swing out adapter.(which, I recall, was developed by a BF member), a Nikon remote cable, and am having the devils own time. at age 85 I have a mind like a steel trap. Everything goes in and I can't get anything back out.
1. Full Manual:
You choose shutter-speed and aperture value....you can judge if the photo will be over/under exposed by the linear exposure meter.
Question: Where on earth do I find the linear exposure meter?
AF Area Mode:
This refers to the Nikon AF zone system that presents five focus targets that you can choose from, in auto the camera will focus on the zone that has an object closest to the camera... in manual you can choose which zone the camera will focus on (via the mini joystick).
Where is the mini joystick?
2. A big problem seems to be lining up camera and scope using this adapter.
Question: When everthing is in alignment and I'm trying to focus using the scope (camera in macro mode) should I be seing the image as a circle in the middle of the monitor, or full sceen as if the scope were not there.? The circle I'm getting is so small I can't begin to focus.
TIA
