frame counter on top of the camera should now
rest at "0". Advance the fUm one more frame and

other shade is available, shade the camera from the sun with
your body while loading.

baseplate,
unfold the rewind crank and turn it with a
con~tant, gentle pressure in the direction of the arrow.
Avoid uneven or excessively fast rewinding. When no
more tension can be felt and the crank turns loosely,

opened. pull the rewind knob up slightly and the fUm
cartridge will drop out.
The rewind button will pop out again as soon as the
fUm advance lever is stroked.
