A. After the 12th exposure of the 120 roll film (24th exposure of the
220 roll film), the film-winding crank will turn freely with further rota-
tions. Therefore, continue rotating the film-winding crank until the
remaining film and all leader paper is wound up on the take-up
spool. Open the back cover when winding action becomes very light.
B. Remove the film holder and, while preventing the loose film from
unwinding, take out the take-up spool. Seal the exposed film and
return it to its original box until development.
* Load and unload film away from direct sunlight and/or strong illu-
mination.
A. The shutter speed scale is viewed in its window over the shutter
speed dial. The numbers on the scale are shutter speed settings, with
numbers 1 to 8S full numbers and numbers 2 to 500 fractions of a
second. For example, "8S" is 8 sec., "2S" is 2 sec., and "500" is 1/500
sec., but no intermediate setting between click stops are possible.
* The shutter is released at 1/500 sec., regardless of the setting when
the battery is not loaded or is completely drained.
B. The numbers on the scale are color-coded in orange and white.
Orange-colored numbers are full number settings of 1 second and
longer while white-colored numbers are settings from ½ to 1/500
second. There is no B (bulb) setting. See time (T) exposures. Shutter
speed settings can be changed before or after shutter cocking.
