PRELIMINARY PREPARATION

Attaching the Neckstrap

Attach the Canon AE-1's neckstrap by

threading it through the rings and adjusting it
to the desired length as indicated in the

photos. A case for a spare battery can be

attached to the neckstrap.

Handling the Lens Cap

The lens cap can be removed from the

front of the lens after pressing in the tabs on
both sides of the cap. The rear dust cover can
be removed by turning the bayonet ring in the

direction of the arrow. To attach the dust
cover, align its slot with the positioning pin

below the red dot of the bayonet ring, and

press it in. When the dust cover is removed,

the bayonet ring is locked.

For an explanation of how the lens

mechanisms function, see page 52.
