This is a raw document provided to me by Yashica/Kyocera marketing.
It was supplied as a photocopied table which had survived a FAX
transfer in 1993 and I converted it into an HTML table. Anything I
added is in square brackets [].
I don't understand all the abbreviations, or the use of ° or ** for
what appear to be footnotes. I didn't get the legend that explains
them, so don't ask. :-) If anyone can shed any light on these
footnote symbols please email me.
