TROUBLESHOOTING
Always hold the
camera
as
shown
on page 8.
Holding
it in other ways
can create a number of problems.
FINGERS BLOCKING
THE
EXIT SLOT
will cause
pictures
with
horizontal
creases,
yel low-colored
areas, feather-like
white
areas,
or
a
combination
of these effects. Keep
your
fingers away
from
the picture exit
slot.
If
a
piece of
film
becomes
jammed
there,
open the film door in dim light and
gently rotate the rollers to
move the film
backward through
the
rol lers.
Never try
to remove a piece of film without opening the film door.
Forc-
ing the film
through the
picture
exit
slot can damage
the
camera.
FINGERS
IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA
A finger in front
of
the FlashBar may reflect the flash
back into
the lens,
fogging
the picture.
Or,
it may block the flash entirely,
causing
a picture
that
is
black or too dark.
A finger in front
of
the electric eye
may
cause
the
camera to
set
a wrong
natura
l
light exposure.
FINGERS
ON THE CAMERA BELLOWS may
block
movement
of
the
mechanism inside the
ca mera,
causing
pictures
with
the top
part
fogged, pictures with foggy
or streaky
light patterns,
or outdoor
pic-
tures that are
comp
letely white. These defects wi ll usual
ly show
up in
the picture
foll
owi
ng
the one
taken
with a
fin
ger
on
the
bel lows.
