10 SHUTTER
regardless of the exposure duration.
To cancel shutter operation during a long exposure, press the battery check button.
Mechanical Operation
There are several shutter speeds available with the New Canon F-1 even if the bat- tery fails. In this case, remove the battery from the battery chamber. Shutter speeds from 1/2000 to 1/125 sec. , ”S” (1/90 sec.) and ”B,” which are all mechanically controlled, can be used. If the shutter dial is set to any speed between 1/60 and 8 secs., the camera switches automatically to 1/90 sec. when you press the shutter button.
IMPORTANT
The camera will not operate if you leave the exhausted baterry in the battery cham- ber.
