Pentax PC35AF User Manual

• Automated flash control range
ASA/ISO 100 film .0.7 to 4m
ASA/ISO 400 film . 1.4 to 6m
• Number of cassette roll films possible
Approx. 100 flashes with a fresh set of
alkaline batteries, at normal temperature
and humidity.
Precautions:
• In flash photography, partial depressing
of shutter button will light the GREEN
lamp in the viewfinder. However, use flash
after confirmation of the flash ready lamp
before releasing the shutter.
• Should the shutter be released before the
flash ready lamp is lit. it may cause
underexposed pictures (darker results).
• The flash head must be pushed back into
the camera, when not required; if left as it is,
the batteries will continue to drain—
depleting them and shortening their life.
• In taking vertical photographs, the camera
should be held with the flash head
positioned upward: then, gently depress
shutter release.
X Self-timer
The self-timer is a useful supplementary aid in
combination with a tripod, whenever the
photographer wishes to include himself in the
picture—a family group photo or with friends.
1. The self-tirner may be set by pushing the
lever in the direction indicated by the arrow.
When the photograph has been taken with
the self-timer, the lever should be returned to
the original position.
2. Depress shutter release after the film has
been wound on with the thumb wheel.
The self-timer lamp (red) will light up—after
about 10 seconds, the shutter will be
released automatically. Approximately 3
seconds prior to the actual shutter release,
the lamp will begin to flash intermittently,
along with a simultaneous intermittent
electronic audible beep—indicating that the
shutter will be released in a few seconds.
This lamp also lights up for an instant when
the shutter is released during normal
photography.
