PRELIMINARY PREPARATIONS

Neckstrap

Thread the tips of the neckstrap through the corresponding rings on the camera so that the tips are on the inside. Then adjust the neckstrap to the length most comfortable for you.

Plastic Insert

Pull up the film rewind knob to open the camera's back cover. Remove the plastic insert, which is attached to the pressure plate, and snap the back cover shut. The insert is no longer necessary and may be thrown away.

Eyecup 4S

This is an accessory eyecup which snaps into the eyepiece grooves. Its use is not mandatory, but viewing with it may be more comfortable, and it helps block extraneous light from entering the viewfinder.

Action Grip

The A-1 has a handy, built-in finger grip, but to make camera holding all the easier, it comes with a detachable action grip as well. Before attaching the grip, load the battery into the camera. Then, using a coin, screw the grip into the action grip mounting socket guided by the positioning pin on the front of the camera body.
