[. . . ] Align the orange circle (B) of the Revolving Ring (found at the rear of the camera) with one of the two white index marks on the camera body. Hold the Film Holder so that its orange circle is at the same position as the one on the Revolving Ring (B) and fit the holder onto the camera back, taking care that the four Camera Back Mount Pins fit into the four openings of the holder 3. Lock the holder on the camera body by moving the Slide Lock as far as it will go in the direction of the arrow. 20 Loading the Film Holder Removing the Holder 4. For instant recognition, the Dark Slide Slot is bordered by white reference lines. The Film Holder can be removed after moving the Holder Lock Lever as far as it will go toward the Lock Release Lever (A). It is recommended that you remove the holder on a table or similar support, or in your lap, to avoid the possibility of dropping the holder or having it fall off the camera. If you attempt to remove the holder without replacing the Dark Slide, the Holder Lock Lever will automattically lock in place. However, if you must remove the holder without the Dark Slide in place. the automatic lock can be overrid den by pulling the Lock Release Lever toward the Holder Lock Lever, holding the lever there, and then moving the Lock Lever. 1. Pull out the upper and lower Back Cover Latches and the back cover will open. Because of the double safety lock, pulling out just one of the two Back Cover Latches will not open the back cover. After opening the back cover of the Roll Film Holder, remove the Film Insert. (The lens shutter will not be cocked unless the Cocking Lever is consecutively pressed until it stops. ) When the film is completely advanced, the numeral `1' will appear in the Exposure Counter and the red, film-unadvanced warning will disappear. While advancing the film from S (start) to 1 with the Cocking Lever, the shutter releasing mechanism is automatically locked until the film is fully advanced to frame 1. After removing the Dark Slide and releasing the shutter, the red warning mark will reappear in the Exposure Counter, indicating that the exposure has been made and the camera needs to be set for the next exposure. 24 Unloading the Film When desiring to turn in for processing a roll of film that has been only partially exposed, first remove the holder after inserting the Dark Slide. Next, while holding in the pin in thecenter of the coupler(A), completely wind the film onto the Take-up Spool with the Film Advance Knob. Instead of continuously holding in the coupler pin, you can push it in once after each frame, if preferred. 1. While holding down the right-hand Spool Release Pin, remove the film, exercising care that the backing paper does not unroll or become loose. In preparation for the future, remove the empty spool from the Film Insert, replacing it on the right-hand side so that it will act as the new Take-up Spool. When the back cover of the holder is opened, the Exposure Counter will automatically return to "S" (Start). If anything other than `s' appears in the Exposure Counter, it indicates that there is film in the holder. To prevent accidental exposure of the film to light, always check the Exposure Counter before opening the back cover of the holder. During exposures, the Dark Slide can be stored in the Dark Slide Slot in the back of the holder. The Memo Clip on the back cover can be used for holding the film box-top as a film reminder or for holding a piece of paper with special 25 Distance Scale Depth-of-Field Depth-of-Field Preview Using the Depth-of-Field Scale The Distance Scale is used to determine the film-plane-to-subject distance.
