SETTING THE FILM FORMAT

The Zero 135 camera is designed to be a dual format camera. The
film format can be set to normal 135 format (23mm X 55mm) or
panoramic format (23mm X 45mm).
1. Turn the top cover lock (C) counter-clockwise to open

the top cover (B).

2. Slide out the back cover (H), you will find two thin, removable

blocks (J) at both sides of the middle chamber of the camera. By
retaining these two blocks in this position, the camera will be in
135 format. Removing these blocks will allow you to shoot in a
panoramic format.
