· LOADING
Place camera face down on a table or other solid surface. Release the back cover by pulling up its
sliding catch. The back cover will spring part-way open and may be opened fully by hand.
Push upward on the slotted rewind shaft situated inside of the chamber, towards the direction of
arrow shown in the illustration.
Insert the film tongue into the groove of the " take-up " spool as far as it will go. Secure the film on
the take-up spool by turning take-up spool once in the direction of the arrow on the spool.
Place cartridge into the film chamber. Push back and turn the slotted rewind shaft until it engages
the slot in the cartridge spool.
Make sure that the film is secure and that the film perforations are engaged with the sprocket teeth.
Locking is automatic. Now, take up the slack of loaded film by rotating the rewind lever clockwise
until tension is felt. Advance the "exposed" portion of film by winding the rapid advance lever and
tripping the shutter until the counter registers " 1".
Your camera is now loaded and " ready".
A single, full stroke of the film advance
lever, advances the film, counts the
pictures taken and sets the shutter for the
next picture. This operation is done as
follows: 1. Put your thumb on the lever
and turn it fully to the right until it stops.
Do not advance the lever part way only.
· ADVANCING FILM AND WINDING SHUTTER
2. Place your thumb to original
position to catch returning lever.
· SETTING SHUTTER SPEEDS
The desired shutter speed is set by rotating the shutter speed dial to the black dot on the camera top
cover. This may be done before or after the shutter is wound. When set at " B " or bulb, the shutter
will remain open for as long as the shutter release is held depressed. Speeds are: 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8,
1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/500 and 1 /l non second
· SETTING THE LENS APERTURE
The desired aperture opening of lens is
set by rotating the aperture scale ring
on the lens barrel to the red diamond
mark on the "depth of field" ring. The
diaphragm automatically reopens to
full aperture after each shutter release.
Consequently, the field of view visible
before and after the shutter is released.
· FOCUSING
With your "Singlex", which is a single lens reflex camera, focusing and composing is achieved
through the lens, completely eliminating the problem of parallax. The penta-prism system
incorporates a bright fresnel lens for clear viewing even to the corners for perfect composition To
focus, frame the subject to be photographed in the viewfinder and rotate the focusing ring either to
the left or right until the split images merge into one clear image.
