I’m sorry
Because we can’t speak english
I am using DeepL translate, so it may be a strange sentence,
but I would like you to understand
Thank you
In this issue, we would like to introduce the depth-of-field preview button on a CONTAX manual focus film SLR camera released in 1987.
Depth of field refers to the range of focus in front of and behind the subject when taking a picture. The preview button is used to check this.
CONTAX 167MT (Reference product)
There is a button at the bottom of the lens mount base.
Press the button to see the depth of field in the viewfinder.
This time we introduced the depth-of-field preview button on CONTAX’s 1987 manual-focus film SLR camera.
The 167MT is a Porsche-designed camera, and even the depth-of-field preview button is designed with a sophisticated, lean design.
Every little part of this camera is a wonderful design.
I will continue to write columns about designs and other aspects of film cameras that no one notices, so please look forward to them!
