Télémètre à coïncidence de ligne (système Dodin). L'image du point visé est décalée vers la droite et vers la gauche par deux prismes fixés sur le verre de visée. Le décalage est nul quand l'image est mise au point (nette) dans le plan des prismes. Ce système, qui a équipé presque tous les appareils photo reflex avant l'invention de la mise au point automatique, est très précis quand la lumière est suffisante, mais fonctionne mal en basse lumière. Il est facilement reconnaissable au cercle clair barré d'un diamètre visible dans le viseur. 3, record 1, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20Dodin
