Before you take a picture
Set the digital timer (13)
Press and hold the SET button until the correct
development time (see the film instructions)
is displayed. The timer will always return to this
time after a development cycle until you reset it.
To reset the timer to a new development time:
To reset it to a higher number than is now dis-
played, simply press the SET button until the new
time is displayed. To reset it to a lower number:
1. Press START once (countdown begins).
2. Press START again (countdown stops in
mid-cycle).
3. Press SET once (zero is displayed and preset
time is cancelled).
4. Press SET steadily until the new time is
displayed.
Check the Lighten/Darken control on the
camera
It should be set to normal as shown (14) except
in certain lighting (see "To take bright outdoor
daylight pictures") and in hot and cold weather
with color film (see film instructions). Also, use
it to retake a picture that is too light or too dark.
Each mark represents 1/3 stop change in expo-
sure. When you are using the ProFlash, use the
Lighten/Darken switch on the flash unit instead
(see "To take pictures with the ProFlash").
Set the film selector (15)
When using color film or Type 665 film, set it to
80. When using black and white 3000 speed film,
set it to 3000 for daylight and flashcube pictures,
3000ER for ProFlash pictures at close and
medium range, and to 80 for ProFlash pictures of
distant subjects. See "Picture-taking guide" for
flash ranges.
Also, you can take black-and-white pictures
indoors by using available light from the scene
and setting the film selector to 3000ER; for
details, see "To take indoor pictures without
flash."
Set the distance scale (16)
Measure or estimate the distance from the
camera lens to your subject. Turn the lens ring
until the distance (in feet or meters) is opposite
the symbol (Ñ) above the lens. Be sure your
subject is within the range shown in the "Picture-
taking guide" for your picture-taking situation.
View and frame your subject
As you look through the center of the viewfinder,
you should see a white frame. If you do not see
all four corners of the frame, move the camera
slightly until you do.
Whatever you want to include in rectangular
pictures (Types 108, 669, 668, 107, 107C, 667
and 665 film) must be placed within the full area
of this white frame (17).
For square-format pictures (Type 87 and 88
film), use only the area within the white frame that
is to the left of the two inner notches (18).
