<Release Socket>
The release socket has a contact for transmitting
electric signals from the Cable Switch L to
operate the shutter.
e If you are shooting on autofocus (“SAF” or
“CAF”) with the Cable Switch, the shutter can
be released after focusing. If you want to shoot
at a decisive moment, set the focusing mode
to “MP”.
e Do not connect a commercially available,
ordinary cable release (mechanically operated
type) to the release socket because it will
cause malfunction.
<Detaching the Camera Back>
The standard camera back can be removed and
replaced with the optional data back GD-2 (p.
218). To remove the camera back, press down on
camera back release pin.
