 when your camera ls not in use.
    Keep the lens and viewfinder clean.
     Don't get nearer than 5 feet from the subject.
,'   Remember to advance the film after each shot, otherwise you
 will have a double exposure.
    When loading or unloading film do so in the shade, never in
 strong, direct sunlight.
    Do not wipe the lens with a dirty handkerchief. Always wlpe
 very lightly by using proper lens paper or lens cleaning cloth.
    Do not snap the shutter when your camera is not in use. Keep
 the Cover Hood and Cap closed to protect the Reflex Glass.                       www.butkus.us
