The back dials are just to set EV values and get shutter speed + aperture combos. Works like the old Kodak circular dials they have in their manuals. Turn the dial to the right setting ... read the numbers. The front ring though, has to be keyed in to the electronics. How else is the meter going to know how to give out an EV value unless you tell it the film speed in use? When you turn the front ring, it clicks in one-third stops. The back dials just turn freely. - -GH
