Hello All,

I certainly don't have the money for any variant of the classic Nikon RFs, but I'm curious about them:

On the left side top--when held with the lens pointing away from you--I notice a dial on the top deck on the supply side with strange numbers on it. On some models of SP, S2, etc. they're not present.

The numbers are-going clockwise: 5, 8.5, 10.5, and (I think) 3.5.

What do these numbers mean?

Lens focal lengths in cm for the viewfinder frames. At one time cm was used in preference to mm when designating lens focal length
