Film Transport and Film End Warning
While shooting, the film transport indicator moves
up and down to indicate normal film transport.
About 2 ft. before the end, the film end warning
lamp on the right side of the viewfinder will light
up. When the film ends, the film transport indicator
ceases to move. Then, stop shooting and take out
the film cartridge-
Removing the Film Cartridge
Set the main switch to "OFF" and open the film
compartment cover. When the film ejection lever on
the upper left of the film compartment is moved in
the direction of the arrow, the film cartridge will
pop up to be removed. The exposed film has a cut
on the perforated edge and "EXPOSED" written on
it to distinguish it from new film. The exposed film
should be developed as soon as possible.
*The main switch must be off before removing the
cartridge. A safety mechanism designed to protect
the recording head will prevent removal of a sound
cartridge when the main switch is at "RL".
