In a moment of what somebody here recently called “old git-itis” I pulled the trigger on very nice FED 3, with Jupiter 2/50 lens, which arrived yesterday.
It looks pretty much immaculate and subject to putting a film through it everything seems to work fine.
I have a couple of queries that hopefully one of you nice knowledgeable chaps can help with.
1. The dial above the film advance counter
shows film type and film speed (ASA).
Am I correct in saying that these are for
information only and have no functional
purpose?
2. The B<>C dial in between the film counter
dial and shutter speed dial. Raised
toward C for taking photos and press
down toward B to rewind. Is that correct?
