UTILIZING eO (1/60 sec.) POSITION
When using an ordinary flash unit with X synch,
contact, select the 1 /60 sec. flash
synchronization mode. Although 1/60 sec. may
be used for general photography without flash,
there is no exposure meter indication.

external LCD window when the shutter speed
is set at 1/60 sec. In the event another mode
is displayed, a changeover to the 60 designation
is possible by depressing the selecting button
("up" or "down") while simultaneously
depressing the mode button. Turn the main
switch ON; a slight depressing of the shutter
release button will display the LED indications
of "60" and "F--" within the viewfinder.
2. During flash photography, adjust the f/stop
according to the camera-to-subject distance.
(For further details, refer to the operating in -
structlons supplied with the flash unit.)
When utilizing the Pentax 645 and a flash unit
via a synch cord as illustrated, connect the
cord to the camera's X-synch socket. The
threaded synch cord plug may be screwed into
this terminal.
