Camera Back Lock System - Nikon NIKONOS-V Instruction Manual

Camera Back Lock System
This newly designed system allows quick and easy
film loading in the normal 35mm camera way.
To allow the camera back to be opened or closed in
a minimum amount of time, a quick-release camera
back release/lock latch
®
is employed . It can be
opened after turning it 90° in the direction of the arrow
on the camera body while depressing the orange
camera back release/lock button @, thereby aligning
the red camera release/lock mark
®
on the latch wit h
the white camera back release index
®
on the camera
body. Before closing the camera back, align the red
mark with the white index, then firmly press the
camera back against the body and turn the latch until
its red mark clicks into position opposite the red
index@.
Naturally, you should never attempt to load or unload
the camera underwater or in situations where water
might get inside the camera.
