THE PARA L LA X ERR 0 R. The finder shows a reduced
image
of the subject as it will
appear on the film. With close-ups, however, the view of the finder does not correspond
exactly with the film image, bec.9use the finder is situated above the camera lens. In
practice this
is
only noticeable with subjects between 3 and 6 feets away. To compen-
sate for the error, point the camera slightly up for horizontal shots, and
turn
it slightly
in the direction of the finder for vertical pictures.

THE
EXPOSURE
Just before taking the picture check the setting of the aperture, shutter speed, and
distance. Pullout the rapid winding .lever once more as far as it will go, as described on
page
12.
This advances the film counter to No.1, tensions the shutter, and at the same
time advances the film by one
frame.
The rewind knob turns every time you advance the film, do not therefore hold it
while winding.
HORIZONTAL SHOTS
Fig. 12 shows the best way of holding the Karat
36.
Grip the camera with both hands,
leaving
the right index finger free to operate the release button, while the finger tips of
the left hand hold the focusing lever for any last-minute focusing adjustments that may
be
required.
