PICTURE TAKING
To take a picture cock the shutter, set the shutter speed and the
aperture, having brought the automatic diaphragm lever to a re-
quired position: "A" – automatic mode or "M" – manual operation.
Focus the lens and smoothly press the release button.
UNLOADING THE CAMERA
When the exposure counter dial shows 36 shots, the exposed film
should be rewound into the cassette. To do this:
press the film rewind knob and turn it against the direction
shown by the arrow. In so doing the knob should go out of its
seat;
1.
disengage the shutter mechanism by turning the shutter disen-
gaging bush in the direction, shown by the arrow;
2.
rotate the film rewind knob in the direction shown by the arrow
until the feel of the applied force indicates that the end of the
film has left the spring of the take-up spool;
3.
open the back door of the camera;
4.
pull the film rewind upwards and remove the cassette.
5.
OPERATING THE SELF-TIMER
To use the self-timer mount the camera on a tripod, cock the shut-
ter and wind the self-timer mechanism by turning its lever until it
points straight down. Set the shutter speed and focus the lens. Set
the required aperture, having changed preliminarily the diaphragm
lever from the position of automatic mode to that of manual opera-
tion (from "A" to "M"). Press the self-timer release button till stop
and take your place in front of the lens.
The shutter operates in no less than 7 seconds after pressing the
button.
OPERATION OF FLASH SYNCHRONISER
To take pictures in conditions of poor illumination flash bulbs are
used. To use a flash bulb set the synchronisation dial opposite to
letters "MF". When an electronic flash is to be used, set the syn-
chronization dial against letter "X". Setting the synchronisation dial
see to it that the dial dash is matched with the dash of index "MF"
or index "X" with the accuracy of half of a dash thickness.
Only the shutter speed of 1/30 sec. (when gating is full) may be
used when photographing with either flash bulbs or an electronic
flash.
Hand-controlled exposure "B" is not desirable when using flash
bulbs, since a considerable amount of stray light (after flash) gets
into the camera and, may result in a blurred image.
N o t e. When operating without flash bulbs, the synchronisation
dial index mark should be set against the release button.
OPERATION WITH INTERCHANGEABLE LENSES AND
PHOTOGRAPHING AT CLOSE DISTANCE
The camera accepts various interchangeable lenses provided with
