HOW TO OPERATE TTIE TUIiNET HEAD
The Revere Model 99 Cqmera is equipped with a 3
lens turret hecd. As stqndcrd equipment the turret
heqd hqs one F2.8, L2.7mm. screw type lens mounted
qnd two screw type cqps. To mount three lenses (qs
illustrqted Pcge 3) remove the two lens ccrps in the
turret heqd qnd instqll the cdditionql lenses. See Bcrck
Cover for cdditionql lenses fitted for Revere Turret. To
cover the grectest rcnge of picture opportunities, we
recommend thqt two Telephoto lenses, I inch o;nd Iy2
inch be obtqined qs the qdditioncl lenses, or for fqster
speed lens use the F1.9. To set qny one of the lenses
into photogrophing position, grqsp qnd rotqte the turret
heqd to the left or right. When the turret hecd is
rotated there is q noticeqble click qs eqch lens seqts
and locks into q correct photogrdphing position, which
is cqused by the spring tension of the roller index
.mechcrnism. Opposite eqch lens on the rim of the
turret hecd is cin index mqrk. When thd index mqrk
"lines-up" with the Lens Position Morker (13), see
Poge 3, the lens is clwcys in position.
THE OPENATING BUTTON
The opercting button (No. 2, Po;ge 3) is conveniently
plcced on the side of the cqmercr. To stqrt the cqmerc
mechqnism, pull the button bqck qs fqr cs possible.
To stop the mechqnism, releqse the button. It will
immediqtely return to the neutral position, reqdy for
instqnt use.
BE SURE TO WIND FULTY AFTER EACH SCENE.
Then the cqmera will be recdy to opercte whenever
you wcrnt to tqke pictures. The mqin spring is q "non-
set" type, so leqving it fully wound will not impcir its
operction in ony wqy.

HOW TO LOAD THE CAMENA
Locding the film is a simple operotion ond with c little
2S-foot,prcrctice it ccrn be crccomplished quickly. A
double-width Bmm. film is used in Revere 99 cqmerqs.
Pictures qre mqde on only one-holt the width of the
Iilm when the lilm is ,.,n thtorgh the cctmercr the first
time. In order to expose the film completely it is neces-
scrry to run the lilm through the cctmerq twice. When
the film is processed, the laboratory slits the lilm down
the middle cnd splices the two pieces together and
returns the lilm to you qs cr S0-foot reel of Bmm' Iilm'
Always locrd or unload the ccrmercr in subdued light, or
if necesscrry, in the shcde of the body. Never lood or
unload the camercr in direct sunlight.
To Locd the Cqmercr: Give the winding key severql
turns. Hold or lcy the camerc on its side ond open the
door. Remove the empty spool. Be sure the edges of
the spool <lre not bent os they will couse the Iilm to jcrm.
II of crny time the empty spool becomes dcrmcrged, it
should be straightened or reploced with ct new one. II
dust or film emulsion is found inside of cqmerq (on
center plcte or in film gcte), remove it by blowir,'g or
brushing it out. This should be d91" frequently- to
keep film from being scrqtched while it is pcssing
through lilm gate. To open film gcte see- illustrqtion
on pqge seven. To cleqn lens, unscrew from mount
ond wipe with soft, lintless cloth. Hqndle lens with
cqre. Dbn't let your fingers touch the lens elemerits.
Finger prints crnd other foreign substcrnces on lens will
bring qbout indistinct pictures.View original page 9Page 11 · Read text

TYPE A FNTER FOR COTON FILM
Indoor color film is different from regulcr dcylight
color film" It is especiclly prepcred for use with white
photoflood lights. This film cqnnot be used in sunlight J
or dcylight unless c Type A filter is used on the lens.
This special filter is required to chcnge the quclity of
daylight to thqt oI regulcr photoflood illuminqtion; $
therefore the color of the filter is redish yellow. It isnot necessqry to use the hqze filter when using the lType A filter. When using the Typ" A filter with
indoor color film outdoors, the speed rcting of the film
is then the sqme qs thct given the regulcr outdoor
color film. When using the indoor color film with
photofloods, it is not necessqry to use cny filter.
Regulcr color film, prepcred especiclly for use in
dcylight, cqn be used with regulcr white- photoflood
lights, if the proper blue filter is used in front of the
lens. The ussof the blue filter is not prccticcl becquse
of the effect of the filter on the speed of the film. The
speed of the film is cut down to less thqn hqlf when
the blue filter is used. Reqsonqbly good results cqn
be obtqined with dcry light color film by using blue
photoflood lights. With these blue lights no filter is
iequired. Bhie photoflood lights are elpeciclly useful
when there is cr combincrtion of dcylight cnd qrtificial
light.

most populcr filter, cs well qs the most useful, is the
yellow filter. There ctre mqny shcrdes or intensities of
yellow filters, but the most widely used is the "medium
t yellow" filter. The yellow {ilter helps t!" Iens to
penetrcte mist, fog cnd haze. It helps to shorp_9n up
your pictures by giving better detcil especiclly in II shqded qreqs. It reduces the glcre from sun, wqter or
\I scnd. It qlso tends to darken the blue of the sky
sulficiently to qllow the white clouds to stqnd out more
ncturclly.
RED FITTER
Another populcr filter is the "red" filter. This filter
is qlso qvqilqble in q vqriety of intensities of the color.
The red filter is used for more dramctic effects. It
dqrkens the blue sky more thcln the yellow filter. It
will help bring out more detail in subiect mqtter in
the dqrker colors such cs purple, dqrk red, qnd deep
shqdows. It is clso helpful when tcking pictures in
bright sun light qnd on snow qnd wqter.
When you purchqse c filter it is importqnt thct you

well to mix up your "shots" between close up scenes,
medium close ups cnd cr few distcnt scenes. When
toking pictures oI people, you should concentrqte on
close ups. When tcking close up pictures, remember
4 to keep in mind the limitqtions of the lens so thqt the
pictures will be in focus, ond the limitotions of the
viewfinder so you will get cll of the subject you wcnt
in the picture.
Be sure to hold the cqmerc stecdy. Do not move
the cqmerq from left to right unless it is cbsolutely
necessqry. Let the subjects move in to or out of the
picture, but don't try to follow them. "Pcnning (moving
cqmerq from side to side) or following moving objects
tends to blur the bockground, ond becquse of the
movement it is even difficult to keep the moving subject
sharp qnd distinct.
Every scene should be qt leqst one qnd a hclf to
two leet of film in length. Scenes of shorter length,
when projected on a screen, will flqsh on qnd off so
;'quickly thot it will be qlmost impossible for the eye
to identi{y the subject mqtter. Since you ccrnnot watch
the footoge dial while tcking pictures, it is qdvisqble
Ior you to count the number of seconds thot the cqmercr
is running for eqch scene. It tqkes five seconds to
run one foot of film. Expose each scene qt leqst eight
seconds. Be sure to wind the spring motor qfter eoch
scene.View original page 22Page 23 · Read text
HOW TO TTNTOAD AND NETOAD THE
CAMERA
Only one hclf of eqch 25 foot roll of double gmm
film is exposed qt q time. Before the entire roll cqn
be completely exposed, recdy lor processing, it is
necessqry to reverse the film qnd run it through the
cqmercr cAcin.
After qll of the first hqlf of the roll hqs been run on
to the tcke up spool, open the cqmercr in only subdued
light qnd remove the spool from the tqke up spindle.
Be sure to hold the film on the spool so thqt it will not
unwind. To reloqd to run the second hclf of the film,
remove the empty spool from the top spindle. Turn
over the spool, which is now filled with film, so thqt

After the second hqlf of the film hqs been run
through the cqmerq qnd completely on to the tcke up

structions on or in the film ccrton.
THE CAMERA SPEEDS
sixteen frqmes per second is the normcl speed ct
which the cqmerq should be run. The Revere ccrmerq
gzis provided with {ive speeds, 8, 12, 16, 24, and
frames per second. The cqmerq mqy be run at cny
of these speeds by setting the speed dicl (number 3
on pcrge 3) ct the desired speed
when taking pictures qt fqster thqn the normql
speed of 16 frqmes per second, cnd projecting the
pictures qt the normql speed, the qction of moving
objects appeqrs to be slowed down. speed 24 on the
ccmercr is used for semi-slow motion, and speed 32 is
used for slow motion. Speeds B cnd 12 hcve the oppo-
site effect to the fqster speeds when tcking pictures r
of moving objects. The qction is speeded up during
projection.

EXPOSUNES WITH PHOTOFLOODS -
Motion pictures of fine quclity mqy be mc49 indoors
ct night with Color or Blqck-qnd-White Film. There qre
only q few detqils to consider for mcking sctisfocto_ry
indoor pictures. Follow the Photoflood Exposure Guide.
Be sure of proper light distribution qnd use proper
exposure stop on lens. Also follow these suggestions:
lst. Arrange lights so they come from dillerent directions-
this breoks up strong shqdows ond gives finer detqil to the
pictures. II you cre using two Mazda lcmps-plcce one on
eoch side oI ccmerq, this will give on even distribution oI
light on subject.
2nd. Use white photofloods with bright rellectors. Number I
photoflood bulbs have a rqted lile oI two hours. Number 2
photollood bulbs hqve cl rqted life of six hours cnd will give
slightly more thqn twice the illuminqtion of the number I bulbs.
To conserve lomp lile, turn them out when scene is complete.
3rd. A light colored bockground should be used. Direct
some light behind the subject to lighten the background.
4th. Be sure there ore no bright rellections glaring ino the
co;mercr lens-rellections will fog pictures.
sth. Locqte lcmps higher thon subject. The lights should
Ilood the subject. Tqke care thot lcmps do not show in pic-
ure. Determine this by looking through view finder.
6th. When possible use c tripod for indoor pictures, or rest
csmerc on toble or stqnd-to keep cqmerq steody.
7th. Remember the distqnce between the cqmerc ond subiect
does not qffect the exposure. It is the distance from light to
subject thqt is importcnt. Do not crowd your subiects. Stond
well back with cqmero to include qs much of the subject os
desire.d, but oI course the reflectors must not show in finder.
8th. Follow the PHOTOFTOOD EXPOSUFE GUIDE. Tqke
."-ple tirne snd ercellent results will lolldw.
