5.1.2 Move the Stage Unit to Get Started

Press the stage unit lock button to release the lock.
Grasp the operation lever, and pull the stage all the way to the
right front, and then press the stage lock button to lock it in
place.

5.1.3 Adjust the Viewfinder

Note: Be sure to adjust the diopter of the viewfinder so it matches the diopter of the

photographer’s eye before taking photographs in the mydriatic mode. Otherwise, focusing
will not be able to be performed correctly.

1

Turn the viewfinder diopter compensation ring
counterclockwise (to the positive end) until it
stops.

2

Look into the viewfinder with one eye.

3

Gradually turn the diopter compensation ring
clockwise (toward negative direction) until the
crosshairs in the field of view appear sharpest.

Concerning the power-saving function
The power-saving function is activated under the following circumstances:
• When none of the switches on the operation panel has been operated for 10 or more minutes

while power is supplied to the camera

• When none of the switches on the operation panel has been operated for 1 or more minutes

after the operation to stop the timer has been performed during fluorescein angiography
photography

When the power-saving function has been activated, the POWER lamp on the operation panel
blinks.
To restore normal operation, press any switch on the operation panel, move the stage to the left or
right or operate the diopter compensation lever.
