A. Depress the shutter release button with the ball of the finger. Use
a smooth, gentle action and press all the way in, without using
strength or jerking.
* A red-colored LED will light up in the front central area of the finder
and will indicate that the shutter has closed, in this case.The signal is
specially valuable when using slow shutter speeds, as it indicates
completion of the exposure.
B. Safety Lock- The shutter release button can be locked to prevent
accidental operations. Simply rotate the locking ring 60° clockwise,
which will place a red dot on the side. The cable release socket will
also be locked, in this case. To release the safety lock, rotate the lock-
ing ring counter-clockwise and place the red dot diagonally lower.
The shutter cannot be released in the following cases:-
1. Shutter release button is locked.
2. Dark slide is inserted.
3. Film winding crank has not been rotated fully. (Same when
exposure counter is still between "S" and "1".)
4. Shutter is not cocked.
5. Lens is not properly attached. (Same with extension tubes
and bellows.)
6. Lens release button is being depressed.
7. All frames (12 on 120 roll film and 24 on 220 roll film) have
been exposed already.
* If film-winding crank is rotated while depressing shutter release
button, the shutter will be released when the winding action is com-
pleted.
* A cable release or self-timer can be used with the cable release
socket on the main body.
Time exposures are made with the time exposure lever on the lens, regardless of the setting
on the shutter speed scale. However, the lever is locked to prevent accidental movement
and must be unlocked for use.
