Mounting/Removing Lenses

Precaution for mounting/removing lenses

1)As the rangefinder coupling roller is precisely adjusted, be sure not to touch with your hand or move it with finger.

2)Gold plated electronic contacts are located inside the bayonet mount and at the rear of each lens. If oil, dirt, or other foreign matter collects on the contacts, poor electronic information transfer may result. When soiled, use a clean cloth to wipe them.

3)Be careful not to damage the rangefinder coupling lever and the shutter cocking lever at the rear of each lens.

4)When mounting the 43mm, 50mm and 65mm wide angle lenses make sure that the rear lens rims do not touch the rangefinder coupling roller.

Position the front face of the lens which has been removed as shown in the left illustration.
