LOADING THE FILM

• This camera has a safety-lock feature that prevents the camera from
being opened accidentally when film is loaded. The film-chamber lock
should automatically release when the film is rewound.
• Use only 35mm, DX-coded film rated between ISO 25 and 3200.
• Do not use Polaroid instant 35mm film. Winding problems may occur.
• ISO 400 film is recommended for best results.
• Always load and unload film in subdued light.
1. Slide the back-cover release
down to open the back cover.
If the back cover does not open when the
film is not loaded, turn the main switch off
and on to release the film chamber lock.
