It is also possible to use an Exposure Meter to determine the correct Aperture to
get the Shutter Speed that you would like the camera to use. Just set the Exposure
Meter’s selected Aperture for that speed on the camera, and the Electro Shutter
will automatically match the correct Shutter Speed. Use of an Incident Light meter
is highly desirable.
FILM UNLOADING
(ALWAYS UNLOAD IN SUBDUED LIGHT)
1. After the last exposure, DO NOT try to advance the film further as it may
tear or come loose, making it impossible to rewind the film into the cassette.
2. Before removing it from the camera, the film should be rewound into its
cassette. Press the Film Rewind Release Button on the bottom plate of the
camera. If you fail to do this, you may tear the film perforations or even
damage the camera mechanism.
3. Unfold the crank handle on the Film Rewind Knob and very slowly turn it in
the direction of the arrow until a slight resistance is felt. Continue slowly
winding until you feel it turning freely. Caution. If you wind too quickly under
conditions of low humidity, you may cause static-electricity to discharge onto
your film, resulting in light streaks on the negative. Gently allow the rewind
handle to turn as the film may unwind itself within the cassette. If the film
turns too quickly, static marks will fog and ruin your negatives.
4. Open the Back Cover, remove the cassette and send for processing.
DEPTH OF FIELD
1. Depth of field is the area in front and behind the subject on which the
camera is focused. within which all objects also appear acceptably sharp in
the picture. It varies with the aperture and is more extensive.
a. When the lens is stopped down
b. When the camera is focused on a distant subject
c. In the background rather than the foreground
2. The depth of field can be determined by reference to the depth-of-field scale
on the lens barrel. With the camera focused on 2 meters and an aperture of
f/16, the depth of field will be from 1.4 to 3.8 meters, i.e. the range enclosed
by the number 16 on both sides of the red index mark.
