English manual for LOMO LC-A camera
OPERATION MANUAL
LOMO COMPACT AUTOMAT camera is designed for operation in
temperature range from minus 15 to +45 °C, direct solar radiation and
precipitation excluded.
Camera LC-A has some distinctive features. It is so small that you can carry it
in your pocket. Automatic exposure working is ensured in a wide range of
object brightness. The camera is provided with a device protecting the photo
objective and viewfinder objective from mechanical damages and
contamination in storage.
The camera is powered from a D.C. source, type SR-44, S-76.
NOTE - When using another power source with temperature operation range
lower than that of your camera, the camera temperature operation range is to
be limited with that of the power source.
A light indicator for control over power cells level and a light indicator warning
of expected shutter speeds longer than 1/30 s are in the field of vision of the
viewfinder.
A wide-angle high power objective is rigidly built in the camera, which
considerably extends opportunities of the camera (photographing of
architectural subjects and landscapes at short distances, photographing of
landscapes in small premises and so on). In this case, some vignetting
(decrease of brightness and definition towards the margin of the field) is
possible that is admissible for a camera of this type.
Focusing is performed by the distance scale.
For photographing with a flash bulb, a manual diaphragm setting in the range
of 2.8 to 16 is provided. At switching-over from automatic operation ("A") to
manual diaphragm setting, a shutter speed 1/60 s is set.
