Motor Drive MD-12

The use of the MD-12 motor drive unit with the FM2 enables
automatic film advance when the unit’s trigger button is pressed.

In addition to single-frame shooting, continuous tiring at the

maximum rate of 3.2 frames per second is possible (i.e., when
the shutter speed set is between 1/125 and 1/4000 sec.). The
motor drive unit proves very convenient when shooting fast-
moving subjects since the photographer does not have to wind
film manually or take his eye off the viewfinder.

The MD-12 can be mounted onto the FM2 by simply inserting
and tightening its built-in screw into the tripod socket ® at the

base of the camera body. Note that lightly pressing the MD-12's
trigger activates the FM2’s exposure meter.
