Mamiya RZ67 Pro II Body Only, RZ67 PRO II manual Revolving Back, Vertical and Horizontal Formats

The Revolving Back

The Vertical and Horizontal Formats Change in Viewfinder Format

Before attempting to revolve the back, set the R-M Lever to "R". To change from horizontal to vertical format, rotate the Film Holder clockwise as far as it will go. Rotating it counter-clockwise, changes the format from vertical back to horizontal.

Revolve the back clockwise or counter- clockwise until it securely clicks at a 90° turn. If the back is not in a "click position", the shutter release button will not function.

The R-M Lever will automatically return from "R" to its normal position upon depressing the Cocking Lever or Shutter Release Button. However, as long as the R-M Lever remains at the "R" setting, the Film Holder can inadvert- ently be moved off-center. Therefore we recommend, returning the lever to its normal position (i.e., center index mark) immediately after revolving the back.

As the revolving back is rotated, the viewfinder format automatically changes from horizon- tal to vertical, or vice versa. This is accomplished by viewfinder masks which are coupled to the revolving back. Additionally, when viewed from the top, a small rectangle appears at the upper edge of the Film Holder, Visible at a glance, this rectangle acts as a reminder, indicating whether the holder has been set for the vertical or horizontal format.
