Operation - Nikon Motor Drive MD-11 Instruction Manual

OPERATION
The camera/MO-11 combination operates in virtually
the same manner as the camera on its own. Please refer
to your camera's instruction manual for details. When
the
MO-11
is attached, leave the film advance lever
flush with the camera body. The motor drive's power
switch will also serve to switch on the camera's meter.
With the motor drive attached all exposures should be
made via the trigger button on the motor drive grip.
Concentric with th is triggering button is the motor
drive S-C selector, giving you a choice of either single
frame (S) or continuous
(C)
shooting. To set the motor
drive to either S or C, depress the lock and turn the
selector to the requ ired setting.

Single-frame shooting: I n this mode, depressing the
trigger button on the motor drive grip fires the shutter;
when the finger is lifted from the button, the motor
drive advances the film one frame and cocks the
shutter. You can lift your finger from the trigger
button even before the exposure is completed since the
electronic interlock prevents the film from advancing
until the shutter has completed its travel. The usable
shutter speed range when the M
0-11
is set at
"s"
is
from 1 second to 1
/l
000 second with the FM. With the
FE, in addition to the automatic setting (AUTO), you
can set any of the marked speeds including M90. The
"8" setting cannot be used.
