Color Temperature Filter Settings
There is a built in filter for adjusting color temperature. When shooting in daylight
with tungsten-balanced film, the filter should be applied. (Sun symbol)
When shooting indoors with artificial light, the filter should be off. (Light-bulb
symbol) When shooting daylight film, the filter is automatically cancelled no matter
what position the switch is. (Either symbol is ok) It is difficult to obtain the proper
color balance unless this is done.
Dioptric Adjustment
While looking through the viewfinder, turn the eyecup to adjust the eyepiece to
your vision. Turn the focusing distance ring to infinity (sideways 8). Look
through the viewfinder. Turn the dioptric adjustment ring until the subject in far
distance appears clearest and sharpest. The eyepiece adjustment range is from -4
to +2 diopters. DELUXE only: Turn the locking ring in the viewfinder to lock
down the eyepiece.
Loading the Film
Insert the film cartridge with the identification label up, and filmstrip to the
right. Put the cartridge in first, and then push down in place. Then close the film
compartment door.
Setting the Distance
The Rhonda CAM can focus as close at 4 feet, but focusing should be done by the
eye. After determining the distance between the camera and the subject, turn the
distance ring until the proper distance is aligned with the index in order to focus
