Whazzit? those little numbers are use to sync the flash (the 'f' in 'iiif'). according to the original manual: 'the required scale settings of the syncro-dial depend on the type of flash bulb used and on the shutter speed required.' i've never used flash with my iiif, so i can't say how well the system works. i'm sure some of the more experienced sm luggers can explain. best of luck, guy
