Bright light sources

If your subject is placed in front of a window

in daylight, the camera’s photocell measures

the bright light, causing your subject to be

too dark in the picture. Use the backlighting

feature to illuminate your subject without

changing the entire exposure.

When a bright source of light (lamplight,

candlelight, etc.) is in the central part of the

scene and in front of the subject, the

photocell measures the bright light, causing

the subject to be too dark. Move the source

of light to one side of your subject.

Temperature

For better colors, avoid extreme

temperatures. When the temperature is

below 55°F (13°C), keep the camera and ﬁlm

warm. Above 95’°F (35°C), keep the camera

and ﬁlm as cool as possible.

Avoid storing camera or ﬁlm in hot places.

Keep developing pictures away from hot

surfaces. As the picture develops, its image

area is dry because the development

process takes place inside the ﬁlm. It is

important not to bend the developing

picture during this process.

Developer rollers

The developer rollers inside the ﬁlm door (i)

must be kept clean to avoid repeated spots

or bar patterns on the pictures. Clean the

rollers with a damp, lint-free cloth.

Lens

To remove ﬁngerprints, breathe on the lens

and wipe it gently with a clean, soft facial

tissue. Do not use silicone-treated eyeglass

tissue.

Helpful hints for using the

camera’s special features

Programmed time exposures

To create the illusion of motion in your pictures

when photographing at night:

Place the

camera on a steady support, turn off the

ﬂash, and program the exposure time for 2-5

seconds. The lights of moving cars will

appear as streaks of light in your picture.

To take a portrait by candlelight:

Turn off the

ﬂash. We suggest programming the

exposure time from 5 to 10 seconds. The

resulting portrait will be warm and pleasing.

To photograph home interiors in average light:

Turn off the ﬂash and start with a

programmed time exposure of 1 second.

To photograph ﬂoodlit buildings, fountains or

monuments:

Start with a programmed time

exposure of 2 seconds.

To photograph through glass or window

screens:

Turn off the ﬂash to reduce

unwanted reﬂections in your picture. If the

subject is well beyond the glass or screen,

use the manual focusing feature as well.

To photograph a nearby subject against a

scenic background at dusk, sunrise or sunset:

Use ﬂash to illuminate your subject properly.

A timed exposure of about 2 seconds will

give correct exposure of the background.

Manual time exposures

To photograph ﬁreworks: Use the manual

time exposure feature. Press and hold the

shutter button from the time the ﬁreworks

go up until they burst in the sky.
