MULTIPLE EXPOSURES MIRROR LOCKUP
Ilntentional multiple exposures for creative effects can be
made with the N ikon F2AS Photomic camera. To take a
multiple exposure, perform the following: Make the initral
exposure, depress and hold the rewind button on the camera’s
baseplate, and stroke the film-advance lever to cock the shut-
ter for the next exposure on the same frame; for each addi-
tional exposure on the frame, repeat the same procedure. At
the completion of multiple exposure operation, stroke the
filmadvance lever once more to release the rewind button,
cover the lens and make one blank exposure, and then re-
sume normal operation. Note that during multiple exposure
operation, the camera’s shutter speed can be changed to any
setting for the desired shooting effect. Also, throughout the
multiple exposure operation, the camera’s frame counter will
remain at the same setting as long as the rewind button is
held depressed while stroking the filmadvance lever.
The reflex mirror must be locked up when using either the
Fisheye-Nikkor 6mm f/5.6 or the OP Fisheye-Nikkor 10mm
f/5.6 lenses, since their rear elements protrude into the cam-
era body and interfere with mirror movement. Lockingup the
mirror is also necessary when shooting with a motor drive
unit at its top speed setting. To lock up the mirror, depress and
hold the depth-offield button and turn the mirror lock-up le-
ver downward until the white dot is aligned with the white
index line. The mirror will remain in the up position until the
lever is returned to the normal position.
