The standard 3.5F and 2.8F shutters were cross-coupled -- that is, the
meter includes an index marker which indicates the exposure which the
current settings will produce. Opening the aperture or lowering the
shutter speed will move the needle one way, while closing the aperture or
raising the shutter speed will move it the other way. The trick is to
shift the shutter speed and aperture so that this index marker matches up
with the light meter's needle, and then Bob is oestensibly your avuncular
relative, albeit this leaves out conditions such as contre-jour and the like.
