4-1 Multiple Exposure

Note 1: The ME button electronically cancels out the shutter release button lock system. Five seconds after pressing the ME button, the canceling effect of the ME button will be cleared, the shutter button will be locked, and the LCD will switch off once again.

Note 2: There is no exposure compensation feature in the Bronica RF 645 for multiple exposure modes. Multiple exposures therefore results in overexposure. The photographer, in accordance with image composition, must calculate exposures done in this way.

Note 3: Do not press the ME button during film advancing. This will cause incorrect film winding and cause a partially overlapped picture. Note 4: The ME button may be activated when the camera is operat- ed without loading a roll of film. One depression on the ME button enables the camera to operate its shutter just one time.

4-2 Selftimer

 

 

 

The selftimer button on the camera back, designated by the symbol, acti- vates a delayed shutter release, bypassing the shutter release button. The shutter speed indicated in the LCD panel will switch to the selftimer display where the counter begins counting down a ten second delay time. At the same time, an LED located at the front of the camera grip begins to flash. The LED flashing accelerates two seconds prior to the shutter release, indi- cating the shutter release timing. To cancel the activated selftimer opera- tion, press the selftimer button for a second time or turn off the main switch to achieve the same effect.

Note 1: If either program AE mode ("P") or the aperture-priority AE mode ("A") is set, the camera meters the subject's brightness immediately before the shutter click and the exposure is controlled correctly.

Note 2: The selftimer cannot be activated when the shutter dial is set to "B", the main switch is turned off, the battery is depleted, or the exposure count- er is set between "S" and "1".
