ATTACHING AND DETACHING LENS To mount or interchange Pentak K, KA and KA F mount lenses, follow the steps below. • • Remove the body mount cap and the rear lens cap. If the finder cap is still on the eyepiece, remove it. • Align the red dot on the camera body with the red dot on the lens (See 0,1k). Seat the lens in the body mount and turn it clockwise until the lens locks with a click. When mounting the lens in dim light, method (0) is recommended. This method allows lens mounting by touch. Align the raised node on lens barrel with the lens release by touch. Then turn and lock as above. • To remove the lens cap, press in on the notches at both sides. • To remove the lens, turn the lens counter-clockwise while pressing the lens release lever. • After removing a lens from the camera body, put the front and rear lens caps to protect the lens from dust and stains. Note: Don't damage or stain the electrical contact points on the mount face. When they become stained, wipe them with a clean, dry cloth. •
