Instruction manual

The camera body and film back are fully coupled at all times, upon connection. When film backs are

interchanged, the shutter cannot be released if the shutter is not cocked or the film is not advanced or both.

Upon changing the film back, therefore, always turn the film winding crank completely one time. If the shutter

is not cocked or the film is not advanced, the incomplete actions will take place when the film winding crank is

rotated.

A. To remove the film back from the camera body, insert the dark slide into the dark slide slit, as illustrated,

with the (3 mark on the dark slide at the top end. Push it all the way in.

B. Depress the film back release button and the lower end of the film back can be removed, as illustrated.

Simply shift the film back up slightly and pull it away.

* The dark slide can be withdrawn, even while the film back is detached from the camera body and, therefore,

extra care is required, in this respect.

C. To attach the film back to the camera body, simply insert the latches

at the upper end of the film back into the attachment openings at the

upper end of the camera body. Then, press the lower end of the film back

against the body until it locks securely.

* The dark slide must be withdrawn from its slit, upon attachment of the

film back to the body, as otherwise the shutter cannot be released.

Furthermore, there is danger of the film back accidentally becoming

detached from the body, should the dark slide be left in its slit while the

camera is being carried. Therefore, make it a rule to withdraw the dark

slide promptly upon attaching the film back to the body.
