MANUAL EXPOSURE CONTROL

When the optional Manual Adapter is attached to the OM-10, it is possible to revert to manual ex- posure control. When photographing fast moving subjects, when there is a possibility of camera shake, or when you want to capture the subject in its natural tones no matter what the illumina- tion behind may be, this accessory proves to be very useful. In order to control exposure in such a way as to obtain special effects to match the

photographic situation or your own intentions,

you must rely on your own expertise and practice. In photography with manual control of exposure, the mode selector lever must be set at the "MAN- UAL ADAPTER" position.

To use the electronic flash T32 or T20 with the

Manual Adapter attached on, you must set the

mode selector lever to AUTO and the flash unit automatically synchronizes at the shutter speed of the camera.

(CAUTION) If an electronic flash other than the

T32 or T20 is used with the Manual Adapter,

sometimes the shutter is not released at the speed

you set on the Adapter due to the noise of the flash.
