  the preceding operations, press the shutter release button
  and make a blank shot. Repeat two times more which will set
  the exposure counter on "1",  ready for taking tne first ex-
   posure.

Film Winding Lever and Exposure Counter
The film winding lever must be stroked 12O' or
until it makes a full stop. There is a play of 20" in
the lever action for convenience in inserting the
right thumb at all times. Each film winding lever
action(or auto-winding action) results in the fol-
lowing actions taking place: -
1. The  f ilm is advanced one frame,
2.The exposure counter is also advanced one

The exposure counter is automatic and requires
no adjustment.
Opening the back cover, after rewinding the
exposed film, automatically returns it to "S".

numbers  f rom 2 to 36 are engraved on the dial,
while the odd numbers in between are not
shown.

Setting the Film Speed
                                               $Since the correct exposure is dependent on the
film speed, as well as shutter speed and aper-
ture, always check the film speed or film sensi-
tivity indicated on the box or instructions which                                                                           ry
are packed with the film being used.
Then set the film speed to the film speed in-
dicator which is also on the shutter speed dial.
Simply lift up and revolve the milled ring around
the dial until the required ASA or DIN number
is seen in one of the windows on top of the
dial. There are nineteen click-stop film speeds
with seven indicated in full numbers and the in-
termediate settings indicated by dots, as fol-

1. The power for the exposure measuring system is switched ON
  when the shutter release button is lightly depressed, which,
   at the same time, lights up an LED along the right border of
  the finder's screen Jrea (showing that power is being supplied
  and that the system is ready to work).
2. Three LED's are lined up vertically along the right border, with illu-
   mination of the central green l-ED indicating a correct exposure
   setting. on the other hand, illumination of either red LED',s, at the
   top oi bottom, will indicate over-and under-exposure adiustment
   and that the exposure setting is not correct'
 3. Exposure setting will be greatly speeded up if a suitable shutter
   speed is, first, chosen for the subject and then set to the camera.

  NOTE
  Use the following table as a general guide for shutter speeds to be used, although it must be re-

1. Le systeme de mesure est aliment6 en coLrrant 6lectrique lors-
  qu'une l6gere pression est appliquee au declencheur. Une
  diode s'allume i droite de I'image de vis6e, pour indiquer que
   le circuit est 6tabli et que le systdme est pr6t i fonctionner.
2. Trois diodes sont alignees verticalement 5 droite de l'6cran. L'allu-
  wage de la diode verte centrale indique que le rdglage est correct.
  En revanche, l'allumage d'une diode rouge (en haut ou en bas)
   indique soit la sur-exposition,  sbit la sous-exposition.  ll faut alors
   modifier la vitesse ou le diaphragme.
3. Les manoeuvres seront plus rapides si l'on choisit tout d'abord
  una vitesse appropri6e au sujet et aux conditions d'6clairement.
    ll suffit alors, tout en appuyant l6gdrement sur le d6clencheur, de
  tourner la bague de diaphragme jusqu 6 ce que la diode verte
   s'allume. Si elle ne s'allume pas, choisir une autre vitesse et recom-
  mencer l'op6ration.
  Nota:
  Le tableau suivant peut servir de guide pour le choix de la vitesse, mais  il faut se souvenir que
   celui-ci ne d6pend pas seulement des conditions d'6clairage. mais aussi de la rapidit6 des mouve-
  ments 6ventuels du sujet.

LED Indications and
Shutter Speed/Aperture Adjustments
 1. Red + (plus) LED (at top) indicates over-exposure.
   ln this case, reset the shutter speed to a faster setting  (i. e.,
   1/60 to 11125 sec.) or stop down the lens diaphragm (i.e.,
  F 1.7 to F 5.6) for getting a correct setting.



2. Central green LED indicates correct exposure.
  The shutter speed is suitable for the aperture and vice versa.
  Check the shutter speed dial and aperture setting for the data
  to be recorded.



3. Red -  (minus) LED (at bottom) indicates under-exposure.   In this case, reset the shutter speed to a slower setting (i.e   ,
   '11125 to 1/60 sec.) or open up the lens diaphragm  (i. e., F 5.6
  to F 1 .7) for getting a correct exposure.

Focusing

 1 . The subject is focused by rotating the distance focusing ring in either
   direction until the two halves of the image coincide in the central
   split-image rangefinder and is also seen distinctly and sharply in the
   surrounding fine focus ring. The split-image rangefinder is specially   good for speedy focusing action.                             ffi


2. The distance focused is found opposite the distance index (which
    is also the green-colored line in the center of the depth of field
   scale), when required for flash photography, etc.

3. Users having trouble focusing through the eyepiece should utilize
   accessory eyepiece correction lenses, which can be attached via
  the accessory Eyepiece Adapter.
  Your optician should be consulted for the required dioptric cor-
   rect io n.

Holding the Camera and Releasing the Shutter
 1 . Hold the camera(or camera with auto winder) firmly but
   comfortably with both hands.
  Press the camera against the face and press both
  elbows (when possible) against the body to steady the
  camera. Whenever feasible, spread both legs slightly
  to steady the body, too.                               Kamera ruhig zu halten. Versuchen Sie

Film Unloading
1. When the last exposure has been taken, as indicateo on the exposure
   counter, or when the winding lever cannot be stroked easily(or auto-
  winding cannot be completed, with drive motor continuing to drive
  and red lamp staying on), stop stroking the winding lever(stop the
   auto winder)or the film may be torn and pulled out of its cartridge.
  Depress the rewind button on the bottom of the camera, in order
  to rewind the film back into its cartridge.
2. Unfold the rewind cranl< and revolve in the clockwise direction.
  Rewind smoothly and evenly because erratic or very  f ast rewind-
   ing may cause static electricity marks on the film. Stop rewind-
   ing when tension Iessens.
3. Pull up the rewind knob strongly and open the back cover. Then
   let the cartridge fall out into your hand. (Do not drop it on the
     f loor as the cartridge may come apart.)

  autowinder ausschalten), sonst kcjnnte der Film aus der Patrone ge-
   rissen und beschiidigt werden.
   Driicken Sie zuerst auf den Rtickspulknopf am Boden der Kamera.

Self-Timer
 The built-in self-timer is a useful mechanism because  it
 lets you take your own photograph or act as your own
 assistant (and hold lighting equipment or a reflector) or
 is useful for minimizing camera vibration on the tripod.
The self-timer is charged by revolving the self_timer
 lever 90'in  the counter-clockwise  direction or down_
 wards, as seen from above. lt is activated by stroking
 the shutter release button, after stroking the film wind_
 ing lever in the usual manner. The self-timer lever can
be adjusted for making delays between 4 to 12 seconds.
The self-timer can be charged before or after stroking
the film winding lever and can be used with shutter
speeds from 1/1000 to 1 second.

lnfrared Index
 1. The red-colored "R" on the depth of  f ield scale is the
    infrarecl index which is used for infrared photography
  with infrared film.
2. Focus in the normal manner, when using infrared film,
  and then shift the distance thus obtained to the in-
   frared index.
3. Follow instructions supplied with the infrared film for
   setting the correct exposure.


Inf rarot-lndex
 1. Das rot ausgelegte 'R' auf der Schdrfentiefenskala  ist
  der Infrarot-lndex. Darauf ist die Entfernung einzustel-
   len, wenn lnfrarotfilm verwendet wird.
2. Stellen Sie dabei die Entfernung in gewohnter Weise
  ein und tibertragen Sie die eingestelle Entfernung auf
  den Infrarot-lndex.
3. Befolgen Sie die Gebrauchsanweisung, die dem Infrarot-
   film beiliegt.
