Eyepiece Adjustment
Eyepiece adjustment is indispensable, because blur
will result if the eyepiece is not adjusted to the
user's eyesight. Turn the focusing ring to infinity.
Turn the dioptric adjustment ring until you can see
distant subjects perfectly clearly. The eyepiece
adjustment range is from —4 to +2 diopters.
Main Switch
The switch has "OFF”, "R" and "RL" positions.
To start filming, set the main switch to the "R"
position and press the shutter release lever. "RL"
stands for running lock and locks the shutter release
lever for continuous shooting. The switch cannot be
turned clockwise from the "OFF" to "RL" posi
tion.
’Current is being consumed at any position other
than "OFF", so be sure to set the switch to "OFF"
when the camera is not in use in order to avoid
wasting the batteries. The red mark which appears
on the main switch at any position other than
"OFF" is a safety feature to let you see at a glance
that the power is on.
