By turning the knob dial located near the lens, the film sensitivity value is displayed in the window at the bottom.

Film sensitivity is indicated by the ASA standard.
The values are 25, 32, 50, 64, 80, 100, 125, 160, 200, 250, 400, 500, and 800.

Today we introduced the film sensitivity dial design of an Olympus compact camera released in 1972.
Like the Konica camera we introduced last time, this camera has a film sensitivity dial.
The setting method is the same, but there are many different film sensitivity values, so this is a very good compact camera that can use a variety of films.
