Congratulations on your choice of the Zenza Bronica SQ-Am single lens reflex camera which has been
developed to provide the user with high quality performance, simple handling convenience and extremely
useful versatility plus automatic motorized film winding and shutter winding operations suitable for the
professional photographer.
Although the Zenza Bronica SQ-Am has been designed exclusively for motorized operations, it has, also, been
developed as a complete modular "system" camera possessing complete interchangeability with the
interchangeable lenses and accessories developed for the SQ and SQ-A models, on which the SQ-Am is also
based, and, therefore, provides the user with a very high degree of motorization in daily operations, in addition
to automatic film winding and shutter winding actions. Although instructions following are based on a standard
combination consisting of the SQ-Am main body with Zenzanon-S 80mm lens, Film Back SQ 120 and Waist
Level Finder S, the choice of the lens, film back and finder is left to the discretion of the photographer, who
should choose those items best suited to the type of assignments contemplated.
To obtain best results from the Zenza Bronica SQ-Am, may we suggest that you read this instruction manual
through carefully, before you even touch the camera, as your pleasure in using the camera will be even greater
if you thoroughly familiarize yourself with its working parts before loading your first roll of film.

1. Loading the Batteries A single 6 volt silver oxide battery or alkaline-manganese battery is required for the electronic control lens shutter. The electronically-controlled shutter system will not work without loading the battery. The shutter will be mechanically controlled when the battery is not loaded and will be released at 1/500 sec., regardless of the setting on the shutter speed dial. Six 1.5 volt AA-size alkaline manganese or NiCd batteries are required for the motor drive system. However, the performance noted in the specifications will not be possible when manganese batteries are used because of their electrical characteristics. *The batteries noted may be obtained at any photographic equipment or electrical appliance shop. A. Set the mode selector switch to OFF. Then, slide the battery chamber button in the arrow indicated direction which will permit the cover to be taken off. The battery chamber cover is closed by, first, inserting the bottom end and then pushing the top end until it locks. B. Taking out the upper battery holder will expose a lower battery chamber which is for the 6 volt battery of the electronic shutter. Coincide the plus (+) and minus (-) marks on the battery with similar polarity indications in the battery chamber, when inserting the battery, and then push it in with your finger. * The shutter will be mechanically-controlled at 1/500 sec. when the battery is loaded with polarity marks reversed. C. The six AA- size batteries for the motor drive system must be loaded in the battery holder taken out, with their polarity marks coincided to the indications on the holder. The battery holder in which the batteries have been loaded must be inserted into the battery chamber in the arrow- direction indicated on the holder.View original page 9

2. Battery Checking
A. Set the mode selector switch to Sm or Cm and then depress the battery check button. If a red-colored LED
lights up at the rear end of the shutter speed scale window, the battery for the electronic shutter is loaded
properly and there is sufficient power for operations. * If the LED does not light up, (1) Mode selector switch is
on "OFF" position, (2) the battery is not loaded properly or (3) it is completely drained and should be
exchanged.
B. The batteries for the motor drive system are checked by setting the mode selector switch to Sm or Cm and
depressing the drive button to check whether there is motor drive operation or not.
3. Exchanging Lenses
The Zenza Bronica SQ-Am will not operate properly unless the lens is attached. Furthermore, it will not be
possible to attach or remove the lens unless both main body and lens are in the "wound" condition, with the
winding pin on the lens positioned between the red-colored band and green-colored dot and the winding pin of
the body set to the green dot. When the winding pins are not located properly for attaching the lens, simply
move the winding pin of the lens to the green dot manually, with your finger, and press the drive button to wind
the lens shutter when the winding pin of the main body is not located at the green-colored dot.
A. To attach the lens to the body, align the orange dot on the
camera main body and the red dot on the lens, and then insert the
lens fully into its mount. Rotate in the counterclockwise direction
until it stops, with an audible click, which will indicate that it is
securely locked.View original page 10Page 11 · Read text
B. To detach the lens, press the lens release button down and, at
the same time, rotate the lens in the clockwise direction until it
makes a full stop, at which point it will be possible to detach the
lens.
4. Functions on the Hand-Grip
A. The mode selector switch has three settings, or OFF, Sm and Cm.
When set to OFF, all power is switched OFF and auto winding, lens
shutter operation and the built-in exposure meter of attached finders
will not function. When set to Sm, there is single exposure operation
and when set to Cm, there is continuous exposures while the shutter
release button is depressed.
B. The drive button is used to set the loaded film to the first frame to
be exposed, after it is aligned to the start-mark, to advance the film
for multiple exposures, etc.
C. When there is abnormal overload on the motor during film
winding operations, etc., the motor will stop and the red colored
overload warning LED will light up. Therefore, move the mode
selector switch to OFF, check for the cause of the overload and
rectify it. Then, set the mode selector switch to Sm or Cm and it will
be possible to continue shooting.
OFF, check for the cause of the overload and rectify it. Then, set the
mode selector switch to Sm or Cm and it will be possible to continue
shooting.
D. The accessory shoe is a hot shoe type which means that electronic flash units with proper terminals can be
used without connecting cords. However, the contact cover on the hot shoe must be removed, first, when
attaching electronic flash units.View original page 11Page 12 · Read text
E. Depress the shutter release button gently, with the ball of the finger.
When the shutter release button is stroked gently and smoothly, it will be possible to confirm the shutter speed
setting in the viewfinder area of the AE Prism Finder S, when it is attached.
5. Shutter Release Warning LED
In the following cases, the shutter will not be released and a shutter
release warning LED will light up, outside the screen area, in the
top center of the finder:
1 . Dark slide is inserted.
2. Lens is not attached properly. (Same with automatic extension
tubes, too.) 3. Lens release button is depressed.
4. Film is not advanced. (Same when exposure counter is between
"S" and "1 ".) 5. Batteries for motor drive operation does not have
sufficient power.
6. Attachment and Removal of Film Back
The film back is a film chamber that can be attached or detached freely, thus permitting free exchange of film
types even during shooting sessions.
The film back is fully coupled to the camera main body, upon attachment. Therefore, the shutter will not be
released, even when the shutter release button is depressed if the film back is attached with the film still not
advanced properly, and the shutter release warning LED will light up instead. The drive button should be used,
in this case, to advance the film one frame.
On the other hand, should the drive button be depressed when a film back is attached with film advanced
properly and, therefore, in condition for photography, the film will not be advanced.
Thus, it is possible to choose the film type most suited to the shot, even midway in the roll. An ASA/ISO film
speed dial is available on the film backs and can be used for setting the film speed of the film loaded in the film
back, as there is automatic
coupling when finders with built-in exposure meters are attached on the camera body. This will, of course, be
very convenient when using films of different sensitivities in the film backs.
* Make full use of the interchangeable film back.
1. Color and black-and-white, in different film speeds, can be shot, as required.
2. Continuous shooting is possible if sufficient preloaded film backs are available.
3. Don't waste unsuitable film used in a previous session but simply load up a new film back with the required
film type.
4. A Single SQ-Am can be used by many in the studio or at home, by using additional film backs.
* Film backs are available optionally. Therefore, the type meeting the requirements of the photographer should
be chosen.View original page 12Page 13 · Read text
A. To attach the film back to the camera main body, simply insert the latches at the upper end of the film back
into the attachment openings at the upper end of the camera main 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 main body, as
otherwise the shutter cannot be released. Furthermore, there is danger of the film back accidentally becoming
detached from the main body, should the dark slide be left in its slit while the camera is being carried.
Therefore, make it rule to withdraw the dark slide promptly upon attaching the film back to the main body.
B. To remove the film back from the camera main body, insert the dark slide into the dark slide slit, as
illustrated, with the O mark on the dark slide at the top end. Push it all the way in.
C. 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 cannot be withdrawn from the film back when the film back is detached from the camera main
body.
7. Construction of Film Back
A. The film back consists of a film holder and a film back frame, with exclusive film backs available for
120 and 220 roll films.
B. The film holder has an insert or frame for loading film, as well as a built-in film winding mechanism. B.
The film back frame has a base with a dark slide slit and a back cover with an ASA/ISO film speed dial
and a film type indicator frame. The film back frame completely encloses the film holder and shields itView original page 13Page 14 · Read text
from outside light, as well as connecting it to the camera main body and also coupling with the finders
with built-in exposure meter.
8. Film Loading

9. ASA/ISO Film Speed Dial
To set the film sensitivity of the film loaded in the film back,
revolve the ASA/ISO film speed dial with a slight lifting action,
as illustrated, and set the film speed scale to the index. There are
click-stops at 1/3rd increments, in this case. (The dial can be
revolved in either direction)
* The ASA/ISO film speed dial is automatically coupled to the
finder with built-in exposure meter, when attached.
10. ISO Film Type Indicator Frame
Upon loading the film, tear off the end flap from the empty film
package and insert it in the film type indicator frame. This will help
you keep track of the film loaded in the film back, even when two
or more film backs are used with different films. At the same time,
set the film speed with the ASA/ISO film speed dial, as it will come
in handy when using the finder with built-in exposure meter.

12. Exposure Counter
The exposure counter shows the number of
frames exposed or, in other words, is an
additive type. Starting from "S", the counter
on Film Back SQ 120 shows numbers from
1 to 12, while Film Back SQ 220 shows
numbers from 1 to 24.
The letters "S", "12" and "24" are orange-
colored while all other numbers are white.
13. Film Unloading
A. After the 12th exposure of the 120 roll film (24th exposure
of the 220 roll film), the film only will be advanced until the
remaining film and leader paper is wound up on the take-up
spool.
Open the back cover when the motor suspends operations.
B. Remove the film holder and, while preventing the loose film
from unwinding, take out the take-up spool. Seal the exposed
film and return it to its original box until development.
* Load and unload film away from direct sunlight and/or strong
illumination.View original page 17Page 18 · Read text
14. Setting the Shutter Speed Dial
A. The shutter speed scale is viewed
in its window over the shutter speed
dial. The numbers on the scale are
shutter speed settings, with numbers
1 to 8S full numbers and numbers 2
to 500 fractions of a second. For
examples, "8S" is 8 sec., "2S" is 2
sec. and "500" is 1/500 sec., but no
intermediate setting between click
stops are possible.
* The shutter is released at 1/500 sec., regardless of the setting when the battery is not loaded or is completely
drained.
B. The numbers on the scale are color-coded in orange and white. Orange-colored numbers are full number
settings of 1 second and longer while white colored numbers are setting from 1/2 to 1/500 second. There is no B
(bulb) setting. See the page 21 for time (T) exposures.
15. Time (T) Exposure
Time exposures are made with the time exposure lever on the lens,
regardless of the setting on the shutter speed scale. However, the lever
is locked to prevent accidental movement and, therefore, must be
unlocked for use.
Except when using the lever for time exposures, always shift it so that
the letter "A" is visible on the lens barrel and tightly lock its set screw
to prevent accidental movement.View original page 18Page 19 · Read text
A. Unscrew the set screw on the time exposure lever until further
revolution is not possible, which will permit the lever to be moved
freely.
B. Slide the time exposure lever and expose a red-colored "T" on the
lens barrel. Depressing the shutter release button, in this condition,
will open the shutter. The shutter is closed by shifting the time
exposure lever and exposing the letter
"A" once more. However, since the film will not be advanced to the
next frame, in this case depress the drive button to advance the film.
16. Setting the Aperture
A. The aperture ring is rotated, in
either direction, to set the required
f/number opposite the white index dot.
The aperture ring click-stops at the
numbered settings. Intermediate
settings are also possible.
* Intermediate settings cannot be used
when the finders with built-in
exposure meter are used.
B. All interchangeable lenses for the Zenza Bronica SQ-Am have fully automatic lens diaphragms which means
that the focusing screen is always viewed at the full aperture, with the brightest possible image. However,
depressing the depth of field preview lever will stop the lens diaphragm down to the preselected lens opening
and permit the photographer to check the depth of field effect on the focusing screen.
* The aperture ring must not be adjusted while the depth of field preview lever is being depressed.View original page 19Page 20 · Read text
17. Interchanging Finders
A. The finder can be interchanged, with other
optional finders, to match shooting conditions to
photographic conditions. To attach the finder,

image sharpness.
screen (standard type).
20. Distance Scale and Depth of Field ScaleView original page 21Page 22 · Read text
A. Distance scales on the Zenzanon-S lenses can be used for
focusing at the required distance or finding the distance actually
focused. Simply rotate the focusing ring and set the required distance
opposite the orange-colored index, which will adjust the lens for the
required distance.
B. There is an apparent zone of sharpness, both in front and back of
the focused subject, which is known as the depth of field. The depth
of field scale shows the zone of apparent sharpness at any lens
opening or distance and can be utilized for quickly and simply
ascertaining the depth of field. The depth of field scale is next to the
distance scales and is made up of identical pairs of apertures on both
sides of the orange-colored distance index. These identical pairs of
apertures indicate the distance that will be in focus at these lens
openings. For example, if the 80mm lens is focused at a distance of
3m, it can be seen from the depth of field scale that the zone will
extend from 2 to 7 meters (6 ft. to 23 ft.), when a lens opening of
F22 is used.
* See the depth of field table for the Zenzanon-S 80mm lens, on
page 40.
21. Infrared Photography
In infrared photography, some adjustment must be made in the focus in
order to retain sharpness on the film, because the invisible infrared rays
are longer in wave length than the visible rays used for focusing. For
infrared photography
1. Use a R filter or equivalent with an infrared (black-and white) film.
2. The red-colored line, next to the orange-colored distance index, is the infrared index.
3. After focusing in the normal manner, re-set the distance indicated by the orange colored distance index to the
infrared index, by shifting the distance ring.
4. Follow instructions enclosed with the infrared film and filter and, to be on the safe side, make several
bracketing shots. In general, more exposure rather than less seems to be a safe guide.
22. Flash PhotographyView original page 22Page 23 · Read text
A. Always use flash cords with a standard PC type plug. When
detaching the flash cord, grip the plug firmly and pull it out
straight, instead of using a twisting action.
B. The lens shutter of the Zenzanon-S lens has a X-setting for
flash synchronization, which means that electronic flash units
will synchronize at all shutter speed settings, up to the fastest
1/500 second.
This means, of course, that flash fill-in for daylight shots can
also be made very easily.
23. Multiple Exposures
A. To make multiple exposures, turn the B. Upon completing the multiple-exposure
multiple exposure lever in the arrow-indicated picture, be sure to return the multiple exposure
