Set the red triangle on the switch to the
first black square on the semi-circular
scale.
Operate the
continuous
running
switch
12,
followed by the master switch 7.
Adjust
the setting until the desired filming
rate is obtained.
The black square between the end of the
scale and the red
dot
is the setting
for
manual sing le frame filming, with the shut-
ter
operated by a cable release
or
the elec-
tric
remote release unit.
In
the «autom. '8» position, the filming
speed (image frequency) is
contro
lled
automatically in
accordance
with the
amount
of
light
available (automatic ex-
tended exposure system).

normal
filming, leave
the sw

red
dot
.
19. Variable shutler
If you pu ll back this
spring
loaded-lever as
far
as
the stop while filming, you
will
gradually
fade
out
the picture. If, on the
other
hand, you start to film with the lever
moved fully to the rear, and a
llow
it to slide
forwards slowly
while
the camera is run-
ning, the scene you are
filming
will be
faded in gradually.
The first time: Do
not
move the fade lever
too rapidly.
Reduced exposure (partially closed shut-
ter): move the lever to the
'/2 position, then
pull down. The lever wi ll engage in this
position.
Increased exposure position: move the
lever fully back and press the lock button.
Move the lever across into the shaded zone
and release the lock button. Note that the
film
im
age will not be exposed until the
automatic
single
frame mechanism advan-
ces the film to the next frame. This in-
creased exposure device operates only in
conjunction
with the time lapse filming
speeds made possible by the automatic
single frame mechanism (filming speed
switch 2).
The first
time:
After
filming
with the in-
creased
or
reduced
exposure time mecha-
nisms, do
not
forget
to release the variab-
le shutter lever
and
move
it
back to the
normal
setting
.

motor.
When you are ready to start the shot form-
ing the second half of the scene containing
the dissolve, press the R button on the
camera
and
the
shutter
release. The cam-
era will start to run and the shutter will
automatically open.
You can check the various phases of the
dissolve in th e
window
: 0 = ready for
phase 1 of the dissolve (fade-
out
and
re
-
wind);
R = ready
for
phase 2 of the dis-
solve (fade-in).
The
first
time:

intended
to provide a smooth transition
between two scenes of your film,
and
time
the shots
accordingly
