When the 35mm film insert is installed, the number 35 shows in a window at the back of
the camera to indicate 35mm film is installed. The number 60 shows when 120 film is
used.
When the camera is loaded with 35mm film,
you need to rotate the frame counter reset knob
behind the frame counter ¼ turn after every
10
th
picture. Rotating the reset knob causes the
frame counter to return to 1. Otherwise, the
counter will go to frame 11, 12 and then red
dots with no frame spacing control. In other
words, you will not get all of the pictures on
your roll of 35mm film, the film will wind all
of the way to the end without stopping. The
reset knob has an indexing window with the numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3. This allows you to
keep track of the number of pictures that you have taken. For example, on a 36 exposure
roll of 35mm film, if you remember to turn the index lever to the next number after every
10
th
exposure, you would have a 3 index and a 6 film counter number for the 36
th
exposure.
The button above the shutter release is a shutter release-locking switch,
red indicates the shutter is not locked.
On the upper left side of the camera is the camera back release button.
The button unscrews several turns and then pushes in to release the
camera back. To prevent accidental door opening, it is recommended
that the button be turned all of the way in.
