Operating Instructions

8. INFINITY POSITION (classic and 2000)

MASTER TECHNIKA with 5 notches at the upper track

INFINITY STOPS

Infinity stops secure a quick shooting availability of the MASTER TECHNIKA

classic and MASTER TECHNIKA 2000. One pair of parallel fold-up stops

belongs to each lens used on the camera. Infinity stops for different lenses

have different colors for easy identification.

Red is the distinguishing color for the normal, black for the wide-angle, and

green for the tele-photo lens. If more lenses are installed, additional colors

such as yellow or blue will be used. The colors of the infinity stops correspond

with the colors of the distance scales and the rangefinder coupling cams

(Master Technika classic).

SETTING TO INFINITY

Fold-up the pair of infinity stops in accordance with the lens used.

For release of upper track press down the red and blue release lever. Grasp the

lens standard by the pull-out grips (11), press them inward and pull the lens

standard out on the upper track against the desired infinity stops, which have

been folded up before. The camera is now set for infinity.

When using different lenses the individual procedure is as follows:

By pressing down the red or blue release lever (12 and 16) the combination of

notch/release will be adjusted. The lens standard is now pulled-out to the fold-

up stops by using the spring-tensioned grips.

COMMONLY USED COMBINATION OF NOTCH / RELEASE

We recommend the following combination for initial fitting of fold-up stops:

Notch 0 Standard position, normal lens (for example 150 mm)

Notches 1 and 2 Release red, Wide-angle lenses (push back upper track)

Notches 4 - 0 Release blue, Telephoto lenses (pull out upper track).

These are only examples which can vary in accordance with the use of

different lenses.
