Loading your camera

Use No. 126 type film cartridge—color or black and white.

Pull Back Cover Latch (J) and swing open camera

back. Place film cartridge in camera upside down as

shown in Fig. 1. Close camera and press back cover to

snap it shut. Advance Film Wind Lever (M) until

number "1" appears in Film Window (N). You need

not to make any adjustment for film speed. It is set

automatically when film cartridge is seated in the

camera.

Do not open camera back until all pictures have been taken and paper backing has been wound past Film

Window.

Correct exposure

Simply turn Shutter Speed Ring (D) until

the desired shutter speed number is set at

the red mark (Fig. 2). Be certain the Ring is

set at a click stop. "60" (1/60-second) is

recommended for subject not in motion.

Where motion exists, the faster shutter,

1/125 or 1/300,should be used. When set at

"B", the shutter will remain open as long as

the Shutter Release Button (A) is depressed.

For automatic Turn the Auto/Manual

Ring (B) until "A" comes at the black

marker (Fig. 3), And the Through-The-

Lens CdS exposure meter

automatically sets the f-stop always to

obtain correct amount of light. The f-

stop number at which your picture is

taken is shown in Exposure Meter

Window (L) on top of camera (Fig. 4).

When the amount of light is not proper, i.e. too much or too little, a Red warning

signal will appear at the left bottom corner in the View Finder, and the Shutter

Release Button is automatically locked, thus preventing improper exposure. Then

choose a different shutter speed, or use flash. (See page 5 for flash pictures). This Red

Warning Signal device does not function when Auto/Manual Ring is set to the manual

aperture position for intentional under- or over-exposed photography. The Through-

The-Lens CdS exposure meter works on a 1.3 volt "mercury battery" (Mallory

RM675 or equivalent) and it will last for approximately one year. When inserting the

battery, make sure that (+) and ( - ) ends of the battery are facing the direction

illustrated in the Battery

Housing (O) (Fig. 5).

Manual exposures

For special effects or other situations where you wish to set the lens manually, merely turn Auto/Manual Ring (B)

until the f stop you desire is aligned with the black indicator marker (Fig. 6).

Holding the camera

When you are ready to take the picture, hold the camera steady, and gently press Shutter Release Button (A) all the

way down.

Viewing and focusing

Look into Viewfinder Eyepiece (K) to compose

your picture and focus the lens. Rotate Focusing

Ring (E) until your subject becomes clear in the

micro-prism focusing screen (Fig. 7).

Since you are viewing through the taking lens

there is no parallax problem what you see in the

viewfinder will

appear in your picture. Even when you shoot close

ups there is no longer danger of accidental

cropping.

Changing the lens

Your camera is equipped with a 55 mm lens which is

the proper focal length for general-purpose picture

taking. You may also use Rikenon 100mm telephoto

or 35mm wide-angle lens.

To remove the lens for exchanging the lenses, continuously turn the lens counterclockwise until it comes off

(Fig. 8).

To insert the standard lens or telephoto or wide-angle lens, turn lens clockwise until the lens stops.

Flash pictures

Insert a 15-volt flash battery in Flash Battery Housing (P) according to the (+) ( - ) illustration in the Housing (Fig.

9).

Using Flashcube

To take flash picture with flashcube, set Shutter Speed Ring (D) at " picture of flash bulb", and the shutter speed is

set automatic ally at 1/30sec., suitable for flash pictures. Then, turn Auto/Manual Ring (B) and select the proper f-

stop. The proper f-stop can be obtained by the following calculation.

F-stop divided by Guide No. 21 m (or 65 ft.) by Distance between camera and subject (in meters or ft.)

Set Auto/Manual Ring (B) to the nearest f-stop in accord ance with the value obtained by the above calculation.

Place flashcube in Flashcube Socket (F) so that 4 prongs in base of flashcube align with accommodating slots in

Flashcube Socket (F). Press flashcube gently into the socket until cube clicks into position (Fig. 10). When you

wind Film Wind Lever (M), flashcube automatic" ally rotates. If you have used some of the bulbs within the cube,

insert cube after Film Wind Lever (M) is wound, with usable bulb facing the subject -be sure to eject cube when

used bulb has reached "firing" position.

Using the normal flash bulbs

If you are using the normal flash or electronic flash,

mount the flash gun onto Accessory Shoe (G) of your

camera, and attach the connecting cord to Flash Terminal

(I) (Fig. 11). Your camera has a Direct Contact (H) built

into Accessory Shoe (G) and cordless type flash guns

may be used.4www.butkus.org

Set both shutter speed and f-stop properly in the same manner as mentioned in "Using Flashcube". Any type of the

flash bulbs has its own guide number and you have to divide the guide number by the distance from the camera to

the subject in order to get the proper unstop value. When using the normal flash unit, set Shutter Speed Ring (D)

at '"flash bulb picture". If you are using the electronic flash unit, you can select any shutter speed ranging from

1/30 -1/300 sec., and "flash bulb picture " (1/30 sec.).

Do not use flashcube and flash gun simultaneously.

Unloading film

When the last picture has been taken, wind Film Wind Lever (M) until all of the paper backing is wound past Film

Window (N), and take out the film cartridge for processing.
