Konica Minolta MAXXUM 50 Film Camera User Manual


 
Point the remote control toward the camera
and press the release or the delay button.
If the built-in flash pops up when the
release button is pressed, wait a few
seconds for the flash to charge and then
press the release button again.
The delay button (1) delays the release of
the shutter for two seconds; the flash fires
four times before the shutter releases. The
release button (2) fires the shutter without
a delay; the flash fires once before the
shutter releases. The subject should be
positioned within the focus frame; the focus
and exposure are set when a remote-
control button is pressed.
Focus lock can be used. To refocus the
camera, press the shutter-release button
partway down. Changing the position of the function dial cancels
the focus and exposure lock.
The remote control can also be used with bulb exposures (p. 45),
multiple exposures, and bracketing (p. 48). To save power, the drive
mode is canceled if an operation is not made within five minutes.
Attach the eyepiece cap if a bright light source is behind the camera
(p. 35).
