Film plane index
The film plane index is situated on the top plate of the
camera to the left of the flash hot shoe. This provides
the most accurate mark for distance measurement
from the subject.

lustration.

2. The icon and set delay time appears in the
camLCD panel.
3. Set delay time can be changed (2s or 10s) with the
up/down buttons on the camLCD panel.
4. Press the shutter release button.
5. When delay time is set to 10s, the self-timer lamp,
located on the front of the camera to the right of
the viewfinder window, lights up for seven seconds
and flashes for three seconds as a countdown indi-
cation. When delay time is set to 2s the self-timer
lamp start flashing immediately after release.
6. The shutter will then fire and the film will advance.
Even if the self-timer operation has started, you can
stop it simply by turning the mode switch back to S, C
or OFF.
When set in the automatic mode, do not stand in front of the
camera when pressing the release button as this could
adversely affect the exposure reading.
The exposure reading is fixed at the time of pressing the
shutter release button, even in AE mode. Check, therefore,
to see that there has been no change in the lighting
conditions during the delay time before exposure.
Multi exposure
The camera can be programmed to make up to 9 expo-
sures of the same frame.
