f The Picture Counter helps you keep track
of your picture-taking by indicating how
many shots remain to be taken. Refer to
the Portrait Selector for picture configuration,
then read the Picture Counter to see how
many exposures are needed to accomplish
the task. The Counter will always read "1"
when making identical portraits.
On the Model 455 camera, set the counter
using the procedure in the instruction book
or call Polaroid Technical Assistance for
details.
