*
Never load film in direct sunlight. Load it in the shade
or in your own shadow.
*
Roll-film inserts for both 120 and 220 film are loaded in
the same manner. The exposure counter advances to 15
when the 120 film insert is used, and to 30 when the 220
film insert is used.
Make absolutely sure to match the film insert with the film
type being used. If the wrong insert is used, the correct
film plane will not be maintained and optimum sharpness
will not be achieved. Moreover, if 120 film is used in the
220 film insert, there is the danger of the leader paper
getting caught in the shutter causing damage to the cam-
era.
*
Before placing the film insert into the camera, make sure
the leader paper on the take-up spool is flat and lies evenly
between the two edges of the take-up spool. The take-up
spool should be wound sufficiently tight to make it impos-
sible for the leader paper to ride over the edge of the
take-up spool.
*
Always align the start marks of the film and spool clip
before placing the film insert into the camera. (If the start
marks are aligned within the camera with the aid of the
film advance crank, the first frame will not be correctly
positioned.)
0 Using Roll-Film Designed for Six Exposures
If you wish to use roll-film designed for six 6 x6cm ex-
posures, follow the procedure outlined below.
1. Load the film in a 120 film insert and use in the normal
way. The film will take 7 exposures.
2. After 7 exposures have been taken, set the shutter
speed dial to 1/500 sec., wind the film advance knob and
release the shutter 4 more times (the exposure counter
will indicate “11”).
3. Wind the film advance knob once again so that the ex-
posure counter indicates "12”, open the back cover, and
remove the film insert. (Do not release the shutter when
the exposure counter indicates "12".)
4. Completely wind the remaining leader paper around
the film take-up spool.
*
If the film in the camera is completely wound onto the
take-up spool, there is the danger of the tip of the leader
paper getting caught in the shutter curtain and damaging
the camera.
