MANUAL OPERATION (II)
4. Turn the aperture ring until the LED dot aligns with the preset
shutter speed indicated by the green pointer.
5. When the LED dot is properly aligned with the green pointer,
press the magnetic release to trip the shutter.
• On manual operation, the correct exposure can also be obtained
through preselection of the lens aperture. In this case, preset the
f-stop and then press the LED display pushbutton. While observ-
ing the position of the LED dot, turn the shutter con trol dial until
the green pOinter aligns with the dot.
• In case two LED dots come on simultaneously, turn the aperture
ring until a single dot aligns with the green pointer.
• The '8 ' setting is used for extremely long exposure. When the
shutter control dial is set at '8 ', the green pointer in the viewfinder
wil l also overlap the '8 ' sett ing.
When thus adjusted , the shutter will remain open over the dura-
tion the magnetic release is kept depressed.
To avoid camera shake when making exposure, mount the cam-
era on a tripod or set it on a firm , plane surface and trip the shutter
by using a cable switch. Make sure the switch is pushed in
properly. Lack of pressure on the switch may cause the shutter to
close before the required exposure is given. .
