Page 17 highlights

To prevent accidental release of the shutter after cocking, turn the shutter dial by pressing on the white button 0 and set it at "L" (Lock). To return the shutter dial to "AUTO", just move it back to its original position where it will lock into place. CAUTION If you should happen to press the shutter button while the shutter dial is set on AUTO with the lens cap on, or in very poor lighting conditions, the mirror may lock up, resulting AUTO in abnormally long exposure. To correct this, the shutter can be quickly closed by turning the shutter dial to 100X. After closing the shutter, be sure to reset the shutter dial to AUTO. •15
