GENERAL

STEPS

OF

PICTURE-TAKING-Continued

Blank

exposure

The

blank

exposure

is

to

release

the

shutter

dispos-

ing

of

the

first few inches

of

film which were ex-

posed during loading,

not

to

take

pictures.

After

loading

the

film, make

two

blank exposures

and

the

frame

counter

indicates

"0".

Stroke

the

film-advance lever

once

more,

and

you

are ready

to

shoot

.

When making

the

blank exposures

to

intercept

the

light,

better

use

the

shutter

speed

of

1/1000

sec. Keep pressing

the

shutter

-speed dial lock

and

turn

the

shutter-speed dial

from

A (Auto)

to

the

1000

(1/1000

sec.). Make

the

blank exposures,

and

return

the

shutter

speed

to

A.

When making

the

blank exposures

at

A (Auto)

to

intercept

the

light,

the

shutter

will be

kept

open.

I n such a case,

return

both

the

shutter-button

lock

and

the

film-advance lever

to

the

locked position

flush against

the

camera.

The

shutter

will be re-

leased

and

ready

for

normal

operation.

Frame

counter

The

36-frame

counter

automatically shows how

many frames have been exposed. It

is

calibrated

in

even numbers, with

the

figures 0,

20

and

36

in

red,

and

odd

numbers by dots.

The

counter

stops

just

past

the

36-frame mark

and

resets itself

automati

-

cally

to

"S"

(start),

two

frames before

0,

when

the

camera back

is

opened

for

reloading.
