LOADING THE FILM

4. Close the back cover.

• The film automatically advances to the first frame

and “1” appears in the data-panel frame counter.

• If the film has been loaded improperly, “0” will

blink on the frame counter and the shutter will
not release. Open the back cover and repeat the
loading procedure.

• Once the film is loaded, the battery-chamber lock

will engage preventing the back cover from being
accidentally opened until the film is rewound.

2. Place the film cartridge into the film

chamber.

GETTING STARTED

3. Extend the film leader to the film-tip

mark. The film must lay flat.

• If the film tip extends beyond the index mark,

push the excess film back into the cartridge.
