Focus figure meter reading/set aperture ( match the needle either stopped down or open aperture, I forget ( not as old as the Canadian Photo Star, but getting there..)) stop down the lens push the non-red button advance film open up lens A PIA for sports... yes, mostly 1 meter reading was OK for a full game, but the focus open, stop down was every shot..... Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net but the machines you're talking about it seems we took a hand held meter reading set things ready and shot from there. But stayed close to wide open to see. Was this your meaning? ted
