UNLOADING THE CAMERA

When the entire roll of film has been exposed re-

wind the film.

Turn the rewind release lever counter-clock-

wise by about 90°.

Fold out the rewind crank and wind it in the

direction of the arrow. While rewinding, you
will feel tension on the crank. When the ten-

sion stops and the crank turns freely, the film

has been completely rewound back into the

cartridge.

Open the camera back by pulling up on the

rewind knob and remove the film cartridge.

Keep camera and film out of direct sunlight

while unloading.

Should you wish to make more than one exposure

on the same frame:

Take up any slack in the film by slowly turn-

ing the rewind crank in a clockwise direction

until it stops, then take the first exposure.

Turn the rewind release lever counter-clock-

wise by about 90°.

Hold both the rewind knob and rewind re-

lease lever to prevent them from turning and

advance the film advance lever. The shutter

will then be cocked for the next exposure
without advancing the film.

Press the shutter release button with a slow,

steady squeeze.

The exposure counter will advance with each

exposure.

After completing the multiple exposures, put

the lens cap on the lens, advance the film, and

shoot a blank frame to avoid overlapping.

NOTE: You can make as many multiple exposure

as you like by repeating the above procedure. With

each exposure on the same frame, the possibility
of slippage is increased.
