Operating button

Touching the operating button in

the center of the mode/shutter-

speed selector activates the cam-

era's meter, viewfinder LED dis-

play, and exposure-control system.

If proper contact is not possible

(e.g., in cold weather, when fingers

are excessively dry, or when wearing

gloves), press the button slightly.

The shutter is released when the

operating button is pressed all the

way down.

For easier operation of other

controls while viewing through the

finder, the circuits will remain on

for 15 sec. after you first touch the

button.

NOTE

• If the operating button becomes

dirty or greasy, turn off the main

switch and wipe the button with a

clean, dry cloth.

Automatic battery check and shut-

ter lock

If any LED in the viewfinder

lights up when the main switch is

on and the operating button is

touched or slightly pressed, the

batteries are inserted correctly and

have sufficient power for operation

of the camera.

When battery power decreases to

a point almost insufficient for cam-

era operation, the LED display will

no longer light up, serving as a

warning to insert fresh batteries as

soon as possible. When battery

capacity is no longer sufficient, the

shutter will not operate.
