The shutter
cannot
be
cocked
when
film is not loaded in the
film back. The
use of the
multi-
ple
exposure
lever will,
however,
permit
you
to cock the shutter,
in such
instan@s.
This
feature
is, of course,
very convenient
for
familiarizing
yourself
with
the
camera
and
for
testing the
shutter
in
f
lash
photography.

"Multiple
Exposures" on

*
Battery
power
is not con-
sumed
when
time
(T)
exposures
are
made.
*
The
lens shutter remains open
while
the
shutter
release
button
is
depressed on B
(bulb)
setting
and, of course,
battery
power
is
also consumed.
Therefore
the
use
of time exposure is recom-
mended
when exposures are
longer than
one minute on
B
(bulb).
*
The
focusing
screen is
inter-
changeable.
However,
do
not
place
trimming masks
or
tapes
on the bottom surface
of the
screens,
as
this will
lead
to in-
accurate
focusing.
*
A
shutter
release warning
LED
will
flash
above the
focus-
ing screen, in
the top center of
the
finder,
and signal
closing of
the shutter when
the shutter
release
button
is
pressed.
Wait
for
this signal, especially at
slow
shutter speeds,
before
rotating
the
film
winding crank.
*
There
will be no
shutter re-
lease action when
there is no
battery
power.
However,
it will
be
possible
to release
the shut-
ter at a mechanically-controlled
1/500 sec.
by
reversing
the mir-
ror
lock-up lever,
after locking
uo the
mirror
first.
*
When taking
pictures,
remem-
ber that
the
final
print
will
be
cut down
somewhat, especially
when
printed
in
the economy
size, because
of
the masking
used in commercial
photofinish-
ing equipment. Therefore, leave
space
on all
sides
when
taking
the
picture.
*
When
using a
finder
with a
built-in
exposure meter, always
remember
to adjust the
ASA/
ISO
film
speed dial of
the
film
back
for
the
film loaded.
*
Restrict cleaning
of the re-
flex

or
brush-
ing

or a
soft

hair brush. Don't
touch
the
surface
with
your
fingers or a cloth.
*
Use
lens
cleaning tissue
and
liquid
to clean
the
surface
of
the
lens. Do
not
use silicon-
coated
cloth
for
this
purpose,
as
it
will
prove
detrimental
to the
lens
coating.
*
Clean the
plastic
focusing
screen
in the same manner.
Don't
touch the surface as
you
may
leave
f
ingerprints.
*
Do
not
wipe the lacquered
exterior of the main
body,
etc.,
with
a lens cleaner, alcohol,

but
limit
cleaning
to
wiping
with
a
silicon-coated
cloth
or a
clean soft cloth.
*
Protect
your
camera
f
rom
temperature
changes which can
result
in moisture condensation,
frost, etc., inside the
body,
lead-
ing to
rusting
of
metallic
parts
and
troubles.
*
Protect
your
camera
f
rom
impact and
vibrations,
too.
*
Upon
attaching the
film
back,
always
pull
out the dark
slide
