O Picture-area frame (Ordinarv picture-taking area)

after making sure the green lamp O or red one O
shown at left lights up. release the shutter. If the
film is not in the camera, these lamps will not light

. When it flickers, you should not shoot.
0
Red lamp;
. When it lights up, flash Is ready to fire.
. When It flickers, flash is being charged.
• The flickering of the green lamp indicates the
camera-to-subject distance is beyond the effective
range in the general-picture shooting or in the macro
shooting. In this case, adjust the camera-to-subject
distance so that the green lamp lights up, and release
the shutter. (When the camera-to-subject distance is
extremely short, the green lamp may not flicker.)
