Main switch
To operate the camera, move the main
switch to "ON." This allows current to flow to
the touch switch/operating button. The mian
switch also serves as the self-timer and battery
check switch .
To prevent accidental exposures and need-
less battery drain, always be sure to move the
main switch to "OFF" when not using the
camera.
Touch switch/operating button
Finger contact with the touch switch/oper-
ating button activates the camera's electronic
shutter and, when the shutter-function selector
is set at "AUTO", powers the electronic ex·
posure control and LED circuits . If proper
contact with the touch switch is not possible
(i.e., while wearing gloves or when fingers are
dry), slight pressure on the button will also
activate the camera.
