• If film does not start to rewind or film rewind stops at mid-roll
• When battery power is very low, or at low temperatures, film may not start
rewinding or film rewind may stop at mid-roll, and o–– and frame number will
blink in the LCD panel. In this case, turn the power switch off, change
batteries, then turn the power switch on and rewind film again.
• Film advance mode
Rotate the film advance mode selector while pressing
the film advance mode selector lock release to select
film advance mode.
• The following film advance modes are available:
S:
Single-frame shooting
Fully depressing the shutter release button takes one picture and
automatically advances the film by one frame.
C:
Continuous shooting
Shots are taken continuously at the rate of up to approx. 4.5 fps as long
as you keep the shutter release button fully depressed.
Cs: Continuous silent-low-speed shooting
Shots are taken continuously at the rate of up to approx. 3 fps as long as
you keep the shutter release button fully depressed. Film rewind speed
also slows down and there is little rewind noise.
Film advance speed is tested using camera settings of focus mode C, exposure
mode ¢, shutter speed 1/250 sec. or faster, aperture other than maximum, at
normal temperature of 20°C (68°F), with AA-type alkaline-manganese batteries, for
the first to 36th frames of a film.
• When the film advance mode selector is set to Z, multiple exposure can be
performed (page 60). Also, when it is set to V, self-timer operation can be
performed (page 67).
• When the batteries are exhausted, film advance speed slows down since film
advance automatically switches to start after the mirror is all the way down.
(Normally, film advance starts immediately when the mirror starts to go down.)
In this case, battery change is recommended.
