Out -of -Film Audible Signal
After the tenth picture is processed, a three (3) second out-of-film chime will
sound. If the empty film pack is left in the ProCam and the Shutter Release Button
is pressed to the first stage, the chime will be repeated.
If the Shutter Release Button is pressed through to the second stage, it will go
through a cycle and the chime will be repeated. Also, if the ProCam is closed and
then opened, the chime will be repeated.
Quintic Lens System
The ProCam Quintic lens system has a rotating Quintic containing 10 zones of
differing optical value, between Front and Rear Lens Assemblies (Figure 1-5, right
side). The Quintic lens rotates until one of its segments (determined by ranging
information from the transducer) is aligned behind the Front Lens Assembly. The
combination of the lenses provides the proper focus for one of 10 zones, between
18" (0.47m) and infinity.
