The M4-P supports frame lines in three pairs: 28/90, 50/75, 35/135. You can flip through them by pressing the lever on the left side of the body.

Holding the camera up to your eye, move the lever on the left front of the camera in and out and it actuates the brightline frames. Without a lens in position, the lever is out and the 35 and 135 frames show. Center shows the 50 and 75. Pushing the lever in, towards the lens shows the 28 and 90 brightlines. Good luck on your new camera.

Try looking up www.cameraquest.com/classics.htm This is a good source of general information.
