OTHER CONTROLS —continued
Multiple Exposure Lever ®
For creative and unusual effects, the F3AF allows you to record
more than one image on the same frame of film. To make double
or multiple exposures, follow this procedure:
1) Take the first shot.
2) Then to recock the shutter without advancing the film, push
the multiple exposure lever forward (Fig. 1), and stroke the
advance lever
1.39).
Immediately the multiple exposure lever
will spring back to its normal position (Fig. 2).
3) Now you are ready to take the second shot on the same
frame. For more than two shots on the same frame, just re­
peat the same procedure for each additional exposure. When
you have finished, simply advance the film normally to the
next frame. While making multiple exposures, the frame
counter does not advance. The multiple exposure setting
cannot be cancelled once the lever is set in the "out” position.
Note: If you wish to cancel the multiple exposure setting, first cover the
lens with the lens cap and close the eyepiece shutter: then make a blank
shot and advance the film to the next frame.
Memo Holder
®
As a reminder of the film type and the number of exposures on
the roll in use, clip off the end of the film carton and insert it into
the memo holder. While loading the film, insert the film carton
end before closing the camera back. When film is already
loaded, you must remove the DX-1 finder.
