PRELIMINARY PREPARATION
Attaching the Neckstrap
Attach the Canon AE-1's neckstrap by
threading it through the rings and adjusting it
to the desired length as indicated in the
photos. A case for a spare battery can be
attached to the neckstrap.
Handling the Lens Cap
The lens cap can be removed from the
front of the lens after pressing in the tabs on
both sides of the cap. The rear dust cover can
be removed by turning the bayonet ring in the
direction of the arrow. To attach the dust
cover, align its slot with the positioning pin
below the red dot of the bayonet ring, and
press it in. When the dust cover is removed,
the bayonet ring is locked.
For an explanation of how the lens
mechanisms function, see page 52.
