Exposure meter in viewfinder

The shutter is released and the film is

exposed while the shutter button is

pressed.

•To prevent the camera from shaking, either fix it to a tripod or place it on a stable sur-

face, and connect a separately sold LA type cable switch to the camera and use it when taking the picture.

• While the film is being exposed, the display panel’s exposure counter switches to a timer display indicating the elapsed bulb shooting time. The counter counts from “00” to “59” (59 seconds), then starts over from “00”.

• The entire viewfinder display remains off while the film is being exposed.
