• Run the camera briefly at 24 or 25 fps to check for proper threading. You will be able to hear if there is any
problem by the sound of film running through the camera.
• Using the same film stock that you will be using for the shoot, turn the PITCH adjustment with a 3mm metric
hex wrench while the camera is running at 24 or 25 fps until you hear the least amount of noise.
• When the camera is set to run reverse and b/w film is used, the best image quality can be achieved by
setting the FWD/REV adjustment to REV. In all other cases set it to FWD.
• Close the camera door.
Note:
Always make sure that a cover is in the magazine port when no magazine is attached.
