Rewinding film using the film rewind crank

Cautions on manual rewind
• Do not press the shutter release button until the film leader is rewound completely
back into the cartridge. Doing so could damage the shutter curtain.
Film rewind R1 button
• If you accidentally press the R1 button during shooting, press the shutter release
button. This returns the R1 button to its original position. (The shutter will not open
and film is advanced one frame without advancing the frame counter.)
Frame counter
• The frame counter counts backward when film is rewound manually but the display
may not indicate the correct frame number.
