8. Compose and focus the image
Compose the intended image on the camera's ground glass, just as you would when using film.

9. Put the insert into the camera
Slide the insert into the back of the camera as

insert may be placed into the camera horizontally or
vertically, depending on the intended orientation of
the image and the requirements of your camera.
