Upon loading the film, tear off the end flap from the empty film pack-
age and insert it in the film type indicator frame.This will help you
keep track of the film loaded in the film back, even when two or more
film backs are used with different films. At the same time, set the film
speed with the ASA/ISO film speed dial. This will come in handy
when using the finder with built-in exposure meter.
Rotating the film-winding crank completely one time, in the forward
direction, will advance the film one frame and, at the same time, cock
the shutter, with the winding action stopping automatically. On the
other hand, short, rapid strokes, up to an accumulated full rotation,
will also do the job.
* Please make sure that the mirror lock-up switch lever is set at "N"
opposite the index when taking pictures. It does not require mirror
lock-up.
The exposure counter shows the number of
frames exposed or, in other words, is an addi-
tive type. Starting from "S", the counter on the
Film Back SQ 120 shows numbers from 1 to
12, while Film Back 220 shows numbers from 1
to 24. The letter "S" and numbers "12" and
"24" are orange-colored, while all other num-
bers are white.
