roll
，
wind the high speed winding lever
with caution. According toγour waγof

，
γou may obtain 1 or 2 exposures
more or iess than the specified number.
Ifγou feel a stronger resistance when

wise γou maγtear the perforations or
detach the filmend from the cartridge
，
which makes rewinding impossible.

nal cartridge with the exposed film.

release knob accidentallγ
，
while winding
