II 7 00 •15 Depress the shutter button completely to shoot. As long as the rapid-wind lever is not closed completely - that is, as long as it is returned to its slightly open, pre-advance position - the meter will stay on and the needle will automatically indicate the speed for the next shot. Once the rapid-wind lever has been completely closed, the meter will be activated only as long as you are depressing the shutter button. To prevent accidental shutter release, lock the shutter button by moving the lock lever Q so that the "L" becomes visible. NOTE: If you should happen to depress the shutter button, while the shutter dial is set at "AUTOMATIC" and the lens cap is on, the reflex mirror may fail to drop back down into place. To bring the mirror down, simply move the shutter dial off "AUTOMATIC."
