Sharp focusing is performed in the l-_l section at the center of the
finder (Fig. l7). There are two methods of focusing. Use the method
that is easiest for the subjecr being phorographed.
To put picture in focus, place eye aicentei of view finder eyepiece
@ and look into finder.
@Dual image merging method (Fig. 1B)
This is the method most commonly used. When taking pictures of
people and focusing on the subjects' eyes, look into the finder and
move the lens focus rlng until the dual images in l--l (Fig. lg-l)
become one (Fig. l8-2).
@Vertical merging method (Fig. 19)

such as buildings or towers, and the subject is jutting out vertically

Z When the loaded lilrn reaches the end, it is automatically
rewound.
7 The rewind will automatically stop when it is complete and the
film counter will show "0" blinking. Open the baik cover and
remove the film.
* Do not remove film in any location that is exposed to direct
sunlight.
* We recommend that film be developed as soon as possible after
it has been exoosed.
* Film can be rewound with the tip out. Immediately before the
film has completed rewind and after the "1" liehti in the film

displayed (Fig. 2l). Ifyou open the back cover now, the film tip
will remain out. Make sure that you don't make a mistake and
reuse that film asain.
* Film rewinds can be paused temporarily. If the main switch lever
is turned while the rewind is in operation, the power will go off
and the rewind will stop. Turn the power on again. This is an
excellent function to use when taking pictures at places like
wedding ceremonies where you don't want the rewind noise
heard (you want to pause the rewind).
