Operating Details
Exposure
As a general rule for all shutter speed settings except
B, you should keep the release button depressed until
the lens shutter has opened and closed fully. This is
especially important at shutter speeds from 1 s to 1
/15s.
If you relax the pressure on the release button too
soon, the auxiliary shutter will terminate the exposure
prematurely (see page 14, ‘Warning Signal’).
You can see the auxiliary shutter, which consists of
two blinds, covering the rear opening of the camera
body.
Time Exposure Lock

disengaged and T, where the depressed release but-

returned to the 0 setting.
The winding crank cannot be advanced until the lock
is reset to 0 .
You can use the T setting for time exposure when the
shutter is set at B.
The time exposure lock cannot be used with a cable
release.
