Lever
C
The
film
advance
lever on the
Nikonos-V operates in
the same
manner
as
that of a
regular
35mm camera.
To cock the shutter
and advance the
film to the next
f rame, stroke the
lever counterclockwise
until it
stops.
When
you
remove
your
finger,
the
lever will
auto-
matically
return. The lever
is ratcheted,
so
it may
be
operated
in one continuous stroke or
a
series
of
shorter
ones.
In
addition,
the
lever is hinged for
com-
pact
storage
in the
rest
position.
The
angle of
throw
is 144o.
.lf
the lever becomes
increasingly diff icult to stroke
when
winding several
frames,
the film is improperly advancing.
Do
not force the lever
further: instead, rewind the
film
and
load
it
again.
.When
all
available frames
have
been exposed,
the
lever will
stop
advancing.
Do
not force the lever further;
instead,
rewind the
film.
Exposure
Compensotion
When the overall scene
is
unusually
light
or dark
in
tone
or
there is a substantial difference
in
contrast
between the
main
subject and
the background
(for
example,
backlit subjects or snowscapes),
the
camera's meter
may
be
fooled into
giving
the
incor-
rect
exposure.
In
these cases,
exposure compensa-
tion-via the
ASA/lSO film
speed
dial-is
required to
obtain the correct exposure.
To do this,
intentionally
reset
the
ASA/lSO film
soeed dibl.
