Camera Settings on Older SLR model I have an older Konica Autoreflex T. On the top where you adjust the shutter speed is also adjustments for "ASA" and "DIN" I know they effect the quality of the photographs and there are certain settings to use for certain film speeds. I was hoping someone would know what these settings were for and how to use them. And if not maybe direct me to a website that may have this info... Thanks for any advice given :o) Connie

ASA and DIN are other designations for ISO (film speed). The ASA and ISO numbers are equivelent.

So for 200 speed film I would have the asa setting at 200 right?

Connie, Some additional trivia about ASA, DIN and ISO. Each of these are standards organizations: Kodak, Ilford, Fuji and Agfa use a standard system for marking their boxes and cannisters with the film speed. If you look at the film speed marked on a film box, you'll see something like: ISO 200/24 with a degree symbol following it. The "200" is the ISO film speed rating (and ASA which now defers to ISO). The "24" followed by a degree symbol is the equivalent film speed under the DIN system. Next time you load your camera with film, look at both the ISO/DIN numbers on the film box/cannister and then look at both the ASA/DIN numbers your film speed dial. Both sets of numbers will match each other. -- John
