Rotate film taste-up spool by advancing film advance lever to take up any slack in the film. Be sure film tip
is firmly hooked onto film take-up spool and that the holes on both sides of the film are caught by the teeth
on the film transport sprockets.
NOTE: The film must pass under the take-up spool when advanced.
Close and press back cover firmly until it snaps shut. Advance film advance lever two or three times, after depressing shutter
release button each time, until the number "1" is opposite the index line in exposure counter. As you advance film advance lever,
film rewind knob will simultaneously rotate counterclockwise indicating that the film is properly advanced. Your camera is now
loaded and ready to go.
Tips for Better Results:
* Always load your camera in the shade or in a poorly-lit place. Never in direct sunlight or other bright light.
3. SETTING THE FILM SPEED
Each type of film, color or black and white, has its own sensitivity to light. This sensitivity is assigned by a numerical value described as a
ASA rating (U.S.A. Standard) or a DIN rating (Europe and most other countries). In most cases, both ASA and DIN ratings are imprinted on
the film package, as well as the data sheet packed with the film and the film cartridge itself. The higher the film speed rating, the more
sensitive the film is to light; that is, less light is required for a proper exposure. The film speed, therefore, is an important element in insuring
that the through-the-lens metering system of your camera determines the correct shutter speed and f-stop combinations for a given lighting
situation.
Depress film speed lock button and rotate the outer ring of film speed dial until the ASA (or DIN) number of your film is exactly opposite the
index line on the outer ring of film speed dial and click stops. For example, if the film is ASA 100, make the correct setting at "100". Take
your finger off film speed lock button to lock the film speed setting in the camera. Below is a table of the available ASA/DIN ratings with the
numbers represented by the dots shown above them.
Tips for Better Results:
* Each time a film with a new film speed rating is loaded in your camera, the film speed must be set to assure accurately exposed
photographs.
4. SELECTING THE SHUTTER SPEED
The shutter controls the length of time the light is allowed to strike the film. The speed at which the shutter opens and closes measured in
fractions of a second that correspond to the numbers c shutter speed dial. For example, "1000" is 1/1000 sec., "125" 1/125 sec., "4" is 1/4 sec.,
"1" is one full second and so on.
Simply turn shutter speed dial until the desired shutter speed is opposite shutter speed index line.
