Through the viewfinder showing the EV scale, the red section warns of camera shake. The rangefinder central square is roughly the area of the spot metering.
 
 

The Olympus 35 SPN from 1972 was an upgrade of the 35 SP. The SPN having an added battery check button and lamp on back as well as a couple of cosmetic changes.
This is a really good camera! an excellent lens. Either full manual exposure or automatic programmed exposure just dial in two A's on the lens barrel, focus and shoot. The camera has the option of normal (20 degree) averaging meter reading or with a press of the button (on the back) a 6 degree spot reading, just hold the shutter button halfway down to lock the metering and recompose and shoot! The metering works in all modes, it has the EV number displayed by the meter needle in the viewfinder, you can turn the aperture ring and/or the shutter speed ring to show the EV number on the lens (has a cutout section to the right of the shutter speed ring).

Fun with this camera.
Lots of dismantling and cleaning, stay tuned for more info.
