Film advance

The film is advanced automatically to the next frame with consistent spacing between frames regardless of format. This resetting of the frame position can be heard when the format selector is moved.

When the mode dial is set at S, one exposure is made. When the mode dial is set at C, consecutive exposures are made as long as the release button remains de- pressed. In the C mode the exposure rate is 1.2 frames/s in the standard format and 0.9 frames/s in the panorama format.

If only one unexposed frame is left on the film to cover the standard format and the format selector is switched to 'panorama', the shutter will lock and a P will flash as a warning.
