-BASIC OPERATION-continued------------

20. Take the picture.

14Look through the viewfinder and press the shutter release button lightly to turn on the exposure meter. The shutter speed display indicates the shutter speed selected by the camera. As long as neither + 2000 nor

-8 - appears in the shutter speed display, the camera gives the correct exposure . If either indication appears, adjust the aperture ring on the lens until a desirable shutter speed is indicated. Should either indication appear even after all possible lens apertures have been tried, then the available light is too bright or too dim for the meter's range . Use either artificial light to increase the subject's brightness or a neutral density filter to reduce the amount of light reaching the film.

21. Advance the film.

Stroke the film advance lever to transport the film to the next frame and get the camera ready for the next shot.
