Manual exposures

  

For special effects or other situations where you wish to set the lens manually, merely turn Auto/Manual Ring (B) 
until the f stop you desire is aligned with the black indicator marker (Fig. 6).  

Holding the camera

  

When you are ready to take the picture, hold the camera steady, and gently press Shutter Release Button (A) all the 
way down.  

Viewing and focusing

  

Look into Viewfinder Eyepiece (K) to compose 
your picture and focus the lens. Rotate Focusing 
Ring (E) until your subject becomes clear in the 
micro-prism focusing screen (Fig. 7).  
Since you are viewing through the taking lens 
there is no parallax problem what you see in the 
viewfinder will  
appear in your picture. Even when you shoot close 
ups there is no longer danger of accidental 
cropping. 

 

Changing the lens

  

Your camera is equipped with a 55 mm lens which is 
the proper focal length for general-purpose picture 
taking. You may also use Rikenon 100mm telephoto 
or 35mm wide-angle lens. 

To remove the lens for exchanging the lenses, continuously turn the lens counterclockwise until it comes off  
(Fig. 8).  
To insert the standard lens or telephoto or wide-angle lens, turn lens clockwise until the lens stops.
