make the camera inch forward.

“OFF”. With the “SET”-button, confirm switching off the
electronic angle adjustment.
As the electronic shutter has been switched off,
the shutter angle must now be adjusted and locked
manually! See the section “Mechanically Ad-
justable Mirror Shutter”.
Note: As a warning that the electronic shutter has been
switched off, the angle symbol in the camera
display blinks in all modes.
Switching On

when the shutter is locked can cause damage to
the camera! See “Checking the Shutter Locking
Mechanism”.

mechanism is in “LOOSE” position.

• Change into Mode 7 by depressing the “MODE”-button
six times (or four times if no functional expansion module
is attached). The display shows the angle symbol and
“OFF” in the upper line.

the desired shutter angle. The “SET”-button confirms the
entry and activates the electronic shutter adjustment.
