FILM LOADING AND WINDING ■ To avoid unnecessary delays when loading the film, before starting it's best to set the shutter mode dial to "125X." If you must load the film with the dial set to "AUTO," remove the lens cap and aim the camera toward a bright light source to avoid excessively long shutter speeds during film advance. If you advance the film with the dial set to "M," make sure to use one of the faster manual shutter speeds. ■ Open the camera back by lifting up sharply on the film rewind knob. Insert the film cartridge in the film chamber and lock the cartridge in place by returning the film rewind knob to its original position. 12 • ,' X B% ■ Draw the film leader across the back and insert it into any of the white needles in the film take-up spool. Make sure the film is engaged properly on the spool by inserting the leader at least the width of one perforation. Ena-meormsommw 13■
