Analog photography beginner question - focusing
I'm totally new to analog photography, recently I bought Minolta X370s and have alrealy started with my first film. Could you explain me what I see through the viewfinder? I mean this half black circle. I know it is split prism for focusing, but I don't know why sometimes the bottom half is black, sometimes top half is black and sometimes non of them (it's transparent then). Thank you in advance!
