Maximum length of connecting
lead:
200 meters (approx. 660 ft.).
In order to avoid any extraneous light,
it
is recommended that the
viewfinder eyepiece should be
covered.
RADIO
CONTROL
Any type of single-channel receiving-transmitting radio-control sys-
tems can be
used.
(A single channel is enough.)
a) Plug the male receiver plug into the camera jack.
b) Lock the release in the "continuous" filming
position.
c) Put power switch in position
c.
d) Control the camera's operation from the transmitter station.
In this case
also,
it is recommended that the viewfinder eyepiece
should be kept
covered.
Maximum operating distance depends on
the power of the radio sets
used.
We strongly advise test runs
before attempting filming.
IMPORTANT
NOTE. -
When under cable or radio
control,
the camera
may stop with its shutter open or
closed;
or again in an interme-
diate
position.
The Reglomatic system goes on operating but, if the
shutter is not completely shut when the camera is at a
standstill,
the
diaphragm will only assume a correct position after a certain time
once filming is
resumed;
this will lead to variable exposures in the
initial frames of the sequence.
