film in "daylight" type artificial light.
7° Use of non-automatic lenses
1. Standard 16-mm "C" mount lenses
Over and above the lenses especially designed for the Super 8
format, the 4008 ZM or 4008 S camera will take any object lens
designed for 16-mm work (C mount: extension 17.52 mm (11/16"), -
thread 25.4 mm (1") - max. thread length 3.8 mm (.15””). (42)
2. Still-camera lenses
Most interchangeable 24X36 miniature camera lenses can be fitted
to the Beaulieu 4008 ZM or S by means of intermediate adapter
rings. See your Beaulieu agent about this point.
Fitting or removing the automatic lens
— Unscrew the release button
— Holding the camera vertically, lens down, unscrew the lens.(43)
Caution: do not hold it only by means of the Reglomatic device,
but grasp the lens as far back as possible.
— To replace the lens, screw it back into place under the same
conditions, then replace the release button. When replacing this
button, care should be taken not to damage the screw-thread.
— Screw the lens home, without exerting too much force.
Connections between the battery and the camera film-speed-setting
system are made by means of three studs and contacts situated, on
the one hand, around| the rear screw-thread of the lens and, on the
other, on the camera body itself. These contacts must be kept
absolutely clean at all times and, in particular, free from oxides.
The camera-lens screw-thread connections are standard: if the lens
is screwed in properly, a correct inter-contact position should result.
