· LOADING

Place camera face down on a table or other solid surface. Release the back cover by pulling up its

sliding catch. The back cover will spring part-way open and may be opened fully by hand.

Push upward on the slotted rewind shaft situated inside of the chamber, towards the direction of

arrow shown in the illustration.

Insert the film tongue into the groove of the " take-up " spool as far as it will go. Secure the film on

the take-up spool by turning take-up spool once in the direction of the arrow on the spool.

Place cartridge into the film chamber. Push back and turn the slotted rewind shaft until it engages

the slot in the cartridge spool.

Make sure that the film is secure and that the film perforations are engaged with the sprocket teeth.

Locking is automatic. Now, take up the slack of loaded film by rotating the rewind lever clockwise

until tension is felt. Advance the "exposed" portion of film by winding the rapid advance lever and

tripping the shutter until the counter registers " 1".

Your camera is now loaded and " ready".

A single, full stroke of the film advance

lever, advances the film, counts the

pictures taken and sets the shutter for the

next picture. This operation is done as

follows: 1. Put your thumb on the lever

and turn it fully to the right until it stops.

Do not advance the lever part way only.

· ADVANCING FILM AND WINDING SHUTTER

2. Place your thumb to original

position to catch returning lever.

· SETTING SHUTTER SPEEDS

The desired shutter speed is set by rotating the shutter speed dial to the black dot on the camera top

cover. This may be done before or after the shutter is wound. When set at " B " or bulb, the shutter

will remain open for as long as the shutter release is held depressed. Speeds are: 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8,

1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/500 and 1 /l non second

· SETTING THE LENS APERTURE

The desired aperture opening of lens is

set by rotating the aperture scale ring

on the lens barrel to the red diamond

mark on the "depth of field" ring. The

diaphragm automatically reopens to

full aperture after each shutter release.

Consequently, the field of view visible

before and after the shutter is released.

· FOCUSING

With your "Singlex", which is a single lens reflex camera, focusing and composing is achieved

through the lens, completely eliminating the problem of parallax. The penta-prism system

incorporates a bright fresnel lens for clear viewing even to the corners for perfect composition To

focus, frame the subject to be photographed in the viewfinder and rotate the focusing ring either to

the left or right until the split images merge into one clear image.
