Minolta WEATHERMATIC 35DL - TAKING PICTURES UNDERWATER

TAKING PICTURES UNDERWATER
You can use your Weathermatic 350L
underwater to depths of 5m (approx. 16
ft.) Underwater, the camera automatically
switches from autofocus to fixed-focus
(Focus-Free)
operation. Focus is auto-
matically
set to provide sharp pictures when
the subject is 1.2 to 3.6m (4 to 11.8 ft.)
away
with 35mm lens, or 1.3 to 3.2m (4.3
to 10.5 ft.) away with 50mm lens. In low
light,
the flash fires automatically to ensure
proper exposu reo
Since picture sharpness and flash range
are
both affected by water clarity, we
recommend
that you take pictures within
2m (6.6 ft.)
of your subject. Also, the flash's
maximum range is about two-thirds of the
distances above water (See p.21). For
optimum results, we recommend using
OX-coded ISO
400 color-negative film for
underwater pictures.
