For special effects, often described in photographic
books and articles in photographic magazines it may
be desirable to make two or more exposures without
ad vancing the film. It is usually best to lock the cam-
era on a firm support so that the images will be prop-
erly located on the film. Use a cable release ( rather
than the body release ) to trip the shutter each time
after it has been cocked . Make as many exposures as
you wish to in this manner. After all exposures have
been made, unlock the film winding mechanism by
following steps given in paragraph on FILM RE-
LEASE, below.
FI ~ M RELEASE
NOT E: When the shutter is tripped with a cable release or directly with the shutter
release lever under the guard, the film transport mechanism which is a part of the
double exposure preventive device will still be locked. To unlock the film transport
mechanism: (1 ) Cock the shutter and hold lever down while (2) pulling right on
the body release lever. (3) Allow body release lever to return to normal and (4) re-
move pressure from the cocking lever. It will stay cocked and then the film can
then be wound forward with the film winding knob.
FLASH LAMP FAILURE
In the event that a flash lamp may fail to fire and the scene to be photographed does
not contain any brilliantly illuminated areas such as lamp bulbs, candles, windows
with daylight visible, etc., it is generally safe to make another exposure on the same
piece of film. Follow instructions above for intentional double exposure.
