Zenit E - Self-Timer and Film Rewinding; Using the Self-Timer; Unloading Exposed Film

THE SELF TIMER -
When shooting with the self-timer, observe the following procedure: cock the shutter: wind the self -
timer mechanism by turning the self-timer setting lever down as far as it will go. Set exposure, choose
the frame, focus the lens . . . Close the lens opening to the f stop and press the self timer release button.
The shutter operates in no less than 9 sec. after pressing the button.
UNLOADING THE CAMERA
(See p.14 for Zenith E)
When the exposure counter dial shows figure (36 or 20) it means that the exposed film should be
rewound into the cassette. The procedure is the following:
1. Disengage the shutter mechanism by pressing the film-rewind release button and, holding it in this
position, rotate the film rewind knob in the direction shown by the indicating pointer until you feel, by
the relaxed force, that the end of the film has left the spring of the take-up spool.
2. Open the back cover of the camera.
3. Pull the film rewind knob upwards and remove the film cassette out of the camera.
