To  take  a  picture

1. Push the latch forward to open the film

door.

2. Hold the pack by its edges, as shown.

3. Slide it all the way into the camera.

4. Close the film door.  The camera ejects

the film cover.

Load the film

Raise the electronic flash to
activate the camera

Note:

Since the electronic flash is
designed to be used for every
picture, 

indoors

 and 

outdoors

,

the camera will not operate until
the electronic flash is raised.

1. Push the top of the electronic flash

down 

and

 release 

it.  The electronic

flash will come up automatically and the
lens cover will move to the side to expose
the  lens.

2. When the light next to the shutter button is

green, the electronic flash is ready to fire.

3. When you are not using the camera, push

the electronic flash down.  The lens cover will
move to cover the lens.

Note:

As mentioned, the flash is designed for
every picture –

 indoors and outdoors

 –

combining with the light from the scene to
provide the right lighting for the best
possible picture.

Position  your  subject

Your subject should be within the camera’s
flash range:

Impulse

– 4 to 10 feet (1.2 to 3m)

Impulse AF

– 2 to 14 feet (.6 to 4.25m)

For best results, your subject should also
be near a light-colored background.

Indoors

Outdoors

Your subject should be:

Impulse

– at least 4 feet (1.2m) away

Impulse AF

in front of your subject.  See
