QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (2)
Q: Why won't the shutter release button move when I
press it?
A: The film advance lever may not have been fully
advanced or the film may have come to its end.
Q: Why can't I advance the film?
A: You may have wound the film already. Try pressing
the shutter release button.
Or, the film may be fully exposed. Check the
exposure counter. If you feel tension on the film
advance lever, DO NOT FORCE IT. Rewind the film.
Q: The rewind crank does not turn when I try to
rewind the film. What should I do?
A: Press in the rewind button.
Q: Is it normal for the microprism in the center of the
viewfinder to "shimmer" and darken?
A: Yes, when a lens with a maximum aperture smaller
than F5 is mounted on the camera. It also happens
with other lenses when the depth of field preview
button is pressed.
Q: What type of batteries should I buy?
A: Purchase two SR44 silver-oxide or LR44 alkaline
batteries. Silver-oxide batteries last longer. You can
also use one CR-1/3N lithium battery. Do not use
different types of batteries at the same time (with
MR44, etc.), even when they are of the same size.
Always replace the two batteries at the same time
and do not use an old and a new battery together.
Q: When should I check the batteries?
A: (1) When new batteries are inserted. (2) After the
camera hasn't been used for a long time. (3) Before
beginning a prolonged period of use.
Q: Why can't I set the ISO film speed I need?
A: At the most, 3 stops can be advanced in a single
stroke of the dial. If this is not enough stops, lift up
and rotate the outer collar of the dial unit it stops; then
release the collar and rotate the collar and dial
