Which Model Pentax? Is it an older analog model?

Hi Atavist

 

i think it shd be an old model

i found no display at all

just an analog scale on one side

 

it looks like the pic i attached

but i'm not sure it's the right model

 

thx so much

Hello,

Its pentax V

very good spotmeter

 

how to use it? just press button and look to digits

its measuring EV units

then you can convert this units to F stops by table on it.

there is shutter speed and red line which is showing 24fp/s

turn your EV on line (downstere) then look at shutter speed

every one have his Fstop

 

(sorry language not enough to explain better :)

 

regards,

i will try using it according to your instructions

 

if i still have problems, i may need to trouble you again
