Important

IHIS. camera is a precision instrument, which
produces excellent photographic results when
operated properly. "The correct manipulation ot |
the parts is as mechanical as driving an auto
bile, although much simpler, and should be
learned at the outset. After that, the art of pho-
tography is easily acquired by practice and ex:

perience.

‘We have attempted to make the sections in
this booklet logical and plain, so that no techni-
cal knowledge is needed to understand its con:
tents, Therefore, please read these instructions
carefully. Practice taking pictures without film
in the camera until you are familiar with all the
controls. Study the section on the subject of
exposure to understand its application,

Then you are ready for your first roll of film
and can expect to get good results,
