          IMPORTANT
    Hold the camera steadE.
    This instrument may be used as a f,red foctt's      camera with stops,f.5.6 or smaller by setting
      the focus at 25 feet. It will, with these stops,
      sharply cover all objects from 8 feet to infinity.
      For objects less than 8 feet distant the camera
     must be focused, even when the small stops
      above referred to are used.
    After making a distant view increase the size of
      the diaphragm opening for close-ups under the
    .  same conditions, even with a distant view for
      a background.
    See that the camera is level, particularly u'hen the
       subject photographed has prominent vertical or
       horizontal  lines.
    Twelveseeonds are sufficient for landscapes, street
       scenes and other subjects where the action does
      not show a marked change in character.
      If panoramic pictures are desired, the Cin6-I(odak
       mttst be moved uery slowly arrl steadily, while
      the motor is running, and the subject must' not
      be close to the camera.
   When the footage indicator shows that all the film
       in the camera has been exposed, run the motor
       until the indicator points to the word EMPTY.
      This winds the proiecting end arottnd the ex-
      posed film.
   Do not remove the exposed film from the metal
      container when the film is sent to the labora-
       tory for processing.
    Print your name and address plainly on the yellow
      box which contained the film, before mailing
      the film to the nearest laboratory for finishing.

       IMPORTANT
   Always hold the camera absolutely steady while
      laking a scene.
   Keep the camera in operation for not less than
      eight or ten seconds on any subject.
   Keep the lens clean. A soft linen or cotton cloth,
      free from lint, wrapped around the end of a
     match, maybe used for this purpose. At the
      seashore or on ocean voyages the lens requires
      frequent cleaning.
   When making a scenic panorama where there is
    no moving object to be followed, the camela
     should be moved verl' slowl-v and evenly.
   When panoraming to secure a picture of a mov-
      ing subject, such as a running horse or a speed-
     ing motor boat, the motion of the camera
     depends upon the rapidity with which the sub-
      jcct moves. The subject must not be close to
      the camera. The moving subject should be kept
      as nearly in the center of the finder as possible.
   The most effective pictures are those in 'which
     not more than one-third of the picture area
      consists of sky, sea or very light foreground.
  When makinE a distant view the best effects are
      olrtained b! having some nca,rby object in 1,he
      foregrottnd
   Follow the instructions on the exposure guide on
      the front of the camera.
     HOLD THE CAMERA STEADY.
