Abstract

The exposure metering circuit comprises a differential amplifier, whose inputs are connected to a measuring bridge consisting of a photo-conductive cell and setting controls for the insertion of exposure factors and whose outputs are connected to light-emitting elements for the indication of a set under-exposure, over-exposure or the correct exposure. The two measuring bridge feed points are connected across a resistor, on the one hand, and across a transistor which is driven by means of a voltage derived from the common emitter circuit of the differential amplifier, on the other hand, to an operating voltage source.
