I got a mod 6 last week and I finally figured it out by just taking the lens
off to understand it better. When the arrow is in one position the
aperature will stay open until the shutter is depressed, this will make it
easier to see; more light. If you dont like that function for whatever
reason ( noise...most likely, you can switch it off. Also, if the lens is
at the aperature that you plan to take the shot at, you will see the depth
of field accuratley. So in short, let the aperature move around if the
light is dim, but if you want to see the depth of field, swith the arrow so
that the aperature remains still. Hope this helps. I think I am right, but
I am new with this camera too, so check around. Hal
