Slight vignetting or moiré patterns appear in the

( ): Indicates degree of exposure compensation needed

(Center-Weighted metering only). For F6 cameras,

compensate by selecting “Other screen” in Custom

Setting “b6: Screen comp.“ and setting the EV level to

-2.0 to +2.0 in 0.5 EV steps. When using screens other

than type B or E, “Other screen” must be selected even

when the required compensation value is “0” (no

compensation required). For F5 cameras, compensate

using Custom Setting #18 on the camera body. For

F4-Series cameras, compensate using the Exposure

Compensation Dial for the focusing screen.

See user’s manual of the camera body for more details.

Blank box means not applicable. Since type M screen can be

used for both macrophotography at a magnification ratio of 1:1

or above and for photomicrography, it has different applications

than other screens.
