2 LOADING THE BATTERY

This camera uses a 3-volt lithium KODAK K123LA (or equivalent) Battery that supplies power for all camera operations.

NOTE: This camera automatically turns off after approximately 3 minutes to conserve battery energy.

If in sunlight, turn your back to the sun and load the film in the shade of your body.

1.Slide the Film-Door Latch (9) down to open the Film Door (20).

2.Insert the flat end of the film cartridge over the Film Spindle (25). Push the other end of the film cartridge down into the Film Chamber (24) until it snaps into place. Do not force it into the film chamber.

3.Slide the panoramic switch down to return to the normal position.

Printing Panoramic Format Pictures

If you took panoramic pictures on the entire roll of film, ask the processing-lab clerk to print the film only in the panoramic format. If there are panoramic and normal format pictures on the film, ask the clerk to print the film in both the normal and panoramic formats. (Normal format prints are 88.9 x 127 mm or 102 x 152 mm, whereas panoramic format prints are 88.9 x 254 mm.) You may want to consult the processing lab for development time and cost, and don’t forget to check the optional panoramic box
