MEMO
• When removing the film from the camera, avoid direct sun light.
• A roll of 24-exposure film takes about 13 seconds to rewind.
• Before opening the back cover, check that
is blinking.
• The shutter may be released a frame or more after the specified
number of frames have been used as indicated on the film cartridge.
However, those extra frames may be lost in processing. When you take
important pictures, rewind the film when the film reaches the number of
frames indicated on the film cartridge (see page 51) and load a new
film.
• If the custom function [CF10] is set to [2], the film is not automatically
rewound. See pages 134 and 139.
