Mirror Shutter
The open sector of the mirror shutter can be
mechanically adjusted while the camera is disconnec-
ted. The opening angles are 45°, 90°, 135°, 144°,
172.8° and 180° and are marked on the moveable
shutterblade. The selected shutter opening locks into
its position. The selected shutter opening angle is also
shown on the camera display when depressing the
PHASE key in Standby (for longer than 1 sec.). An
automatic stop position guarantees an undisturbed view
through the viewfinder, once the camera is stopped.
If the film gate needs to be checked through the lens
port, release PHASE pushbotton quickly after activat-
ing it in Standby. The mirror shutter will then remain
in the open position for the gate check. Once the
check is completed, press the Phase pushbutton briefly,
and the shutter will return to its viewing position.
Manual Inching Knob
To turn the mirror shutter and movement manually,
press the manual inching knob and turn this in the
direction of the arrow on the side of the camera.
