Just a trivial question - what does "SW" stand for on the Spotmatic exposure meter switch? --Johnbear (talk) 09:53, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
Push the switch up to SW to switch the meter on. This is from the instruction book:
Push up the switch button with your thumb, and the small window on the switch button will turn to red indicating that the meter is switched on. Through the viewfinder, you will observe the movement of the meters needle on the right side of the ground glass. Be sure to turn off the meters switch when not actually taking readings.
