LCD panel	A
The various functions are accessed by repeatedly pressing the
function selector button (loop menu) and changes made by the
‘change-up’ and ‘change-down’ buttons. Any settings are automati-
cally saved. At very low temperatures the LCD will require a few
seconds to display new settings.
LCD illumination button	B
The LCD can be illuminated by pressing the display illumination
button, which is accessible when the magazine is not attached to
the camera. The LCD will remain illuminated all the time you keep
the button depressed, up to a maximum of 10 seconds. After 10
seconds has expired, you must release the pressure on the button
and press again to obtain a further 10 second period of illumina-
tion. Remember that using the illumination function very often
will noticeably shorten the life of the battery in the magazine.
When the magazine is attached to the camera, the button on the
magazine is inaccessible but you can still illuminate the LCD by
pressing the illumination button on the grip instead.
Change up button	C
Can alter the settings ‘upwards’. For example, to increase the film
speed setting. Toggle action.
Change down button	D
Can alter the settings ‘downwards’. For example, to decrease the
film speed setting. Toggle action.
Function selector	E
Selects the four functions that can be changed on the magazine.
The functions are on a menu loop so that repeated pressing of the
selector button will successively access all functions in turn. After
