✍MEMO

•We suggest that you first operate the camera with no film loaded to become familiar with its operations.

•Always load and unload the film in the shade or avoid direct sunshine.

•The shutter curtains are made from fine precision material. Do not touch them with your fingers or any other object while loading the film.

•Automatic film speed setting

When DX-coded film is used, the correct film speed is automatically set for the camera. If you use a non-DX coded film, you can set the film speed manually. See page 52.

•Infrared film cannot be used. This camera uses infrared rays to detect film transport so infrared film may be exposed.
