Closing the Camera
The procedure for closing the Nikonos is just the reverse
of that for opening the camera. Hold down the film
pressure plate and slide the interior body into the outer
housing. Press down firmly until the top edge of the
interior body fits tightly against the top edge of the outer
housing.
Caution: Be careful not to exert excessive pressure
on the shutter-speed dial when inserting the interior
body into the housing.
Place the lens in the bayonet mount with the
focusing knob pointing towards the top. Push
the lens inward and twist it clockwise until the
distance scale comes to the top and the
positioning pins click into the grooves.
Note: The lens can also be mounted upside down for
greater convenience in reading the distance scale when
the camera is carried on a neck strap. If the lens cannot
be mounted smoothly luhricate the O-ring gasket around
the lens base.
