The electronically controlled shutter and, of course, the electro-magnetic shutter release system will not
work without loading the battery. Use one 6 volt silver oxide battery or alkaline-manganese battery.
* The battery may be obtained at any photographic equipment or electrical appliance shop.
A. Depress the battery chamber button with your finger and, at the

1. Loading the Battery
B. Coincide the plus (+) and minus (-) marks on the battery with simi-
lar polarity indications in the battery chamber. Then, push in the bat-
tery. Insert the battery chamber cover into the BATTERY end first and
then move the cover in the other direction until it locks.
* The shutter will not operate when the battery is loaded with polari-
ty marks reserved.
The main switch is located on the upper left side of the main body.
There will be no operation unless the main switch is pushed down
(i.e., switched ON).
* There is no power consumption, even with the main switch ON.
However, the battery life will be shortened when the shutter release
is stroked half-way and the shutter speed display lights up steadily or
flickers. Therefore, switch OFF (push up) the main switch when you
are not planning to use the camera for some time.
2. Main Switch
A. A LED display located over the top center of the focusing
screen shows the shutter speed, which is viewed laterally
reversed with the waist-level finder. Since the LED display dif-
fers with the finder in use, please read the instructions sup-
plied with the finder for correct usage and reading.
