![]() Repeat that all the way to the 12th exposure. The scale around the knob is a ASA/DIN reminder. The other knob is the focus control, being the above scale for depth of field control. On the left side we have another set of controls, most dedicated to the advance of the 135 cartridge film. Although the big knob, top right, where we can read “35mm only” and the one with the red arrow, on the bottom, are used to secure the 120 roll film also. ![]() The drill is the same, on this side to control de advance of the 135 cartridge film. ![]() The film is loaded using the adapter after the back is closed we have to press the 35mm stop/release button, that isolated silver button, and wind CCW the “35mm film only” knob. We have to repeat this operation three times to advance the exposed film, during loading, after that we have to turn the exposure counter, the scale around the knob, in the arrow direction and align the 1 with the index dot.Īfter that all we have to do is, after every exposure, press the 35mm film stop/release and advance to the next frame. The small knob with the engraved red R is pulled out and turned, to release the sprocket axle and allow the rewinding of the film, performed turning the bottom knob in the arrow direction. The 120 film loading is quite simple, as I explained above, like in most TLR cameras of this kind. Using 35mm is a little more tricky but it isn’t rocket science.Īfter make sure that the sprocket holes are engaged in the sprocket teeth it’s time to set the pressure plate and close the camera.Īdvance three exposures, reset the counter and we have a film to burn. I have to confess that, although I’ve taken several 120 films with it, I’ve not yet tried it with this kit. In the previous post about this camera, I told you that when I bought it the 35mm mask for the sports finder was missing. I found a kit missing the spacer ring and the spool stud adapter, at a flea market, paid four Euro for it, and completed my kit. I can’t say this is the most simple or intuitive camera but it’s not a challenge also. ![]()
