these instructions. The picture roll actually drops in place. Do not load in direct sunlight,

HOWtO SET F[|R
EXpISURE(rhe
Althoughthe variouscontrols shown on the opposite page may appear complicated,there is one very
simple way to set the camera for correct exposure, and you'll probably want to standardize on it.
Here's how:

lf you want to change shutter speeds,you can do so. You'll noticethat this will shift the "EV" numbers
and you must reset the EV pointer to the number you want. You'll also notice that there's a limit to
how far the pointer will go, and if the number you want is beyondthat limit, you must turn the shutter
controf ring to bring the number to the pointer. For more detailed instructions,see pages 20 and 2L.

FOCUS THE CAMERA:
Your camera has a coupled range'
finder that lets you focus accurately on
any subject from 3Yz feet to miles
aiay. The rangefinder window is the
one on the right as you look at the back
of the camera.

focusing knob on the bed of the cam'

second image move back and forth
across the main image. When the two
coincide exactly for the subject you are

Howto take FLASHPICTURES
The shutter is synchronized for regular wire-filled
flash bulbs (the "M" position of the Synchronization
Selector) and for electronic flash (the "X" position
also used for gas-filled bulbs).
of the Selector
F O R R E G U T AR F L A S H B U t B S
("M" position)
Use the Polaroid Model 28L Flash Gun, which clips
right to the camera and makes electrical connection
in the clip no wires needed. The 'tEV" shutter
settings for various distances are given in the flash
guide on the back of the gun. Set the shutter at
l/125 second. Focus with the rangefinder, and read
the distances on the scale on the camera bed.
The flash guide on the gun gives the proper "EV"
setting for that distance. NOTE: if you are using
the Self-Timer for flash pictures, set shutter to
l/30 instead ot l/L25.
(See p a g e 2 0 . )
Use "BOUNCE FLASH"
for pictures with a natural daylight look. The
#292 Bounce Flash
Bracket makes this professional technique easy
to use. Ask your dealer
about the bracket.
Page I 8
E L E C T R O N I CF T A S H ( " X " p o s i t i o n )
The "X" position of the Selector Switch provides
zero-delay synchronization for high-speed electronic
flash lamps (and gas-filled bulbs). Remove flash
connector (see picture) and attach cord from flash
gun. The fitting is a European standard, for which
adaptor cables are available through your dealer.
Exposure settings must be worked out experimentally
for the individual gun, because of the wide variations
in light output among the many units on the market.
ANdTIMEEXPOSURES
SHOTS
IND(|(IR
The large lens apertures and slow shutter speeds
offered in your camera make it possible to take many
pictures indoors, using daylight coming through
windows or high-level artificial illumination. At the
slower shutter speeds, down to 1/15th sec., be
particularly careful to hold the camera steady. At
l/Bth sec., and below, use a tripod or other firm
base to steady camera.
You'll be using the lower "EV" numbers indoors,
which means that the lens will probably be "wideopen" for most of your pictures. This requires extra
care in focusing, and will limit the sharp zone of the
scene. But the pictures can be very rewardingAvoid as much as possible a lighting situation which
puts allthe light on one side of the subject, producing
a h ighly-contrasty print wh ich is a pt to be u nf lattering.

"Butb"- a hang-over from the old days when shutters were held open by squeezing a rubber bulb).
The shutter will stay open as long as you hold the
release lever down. Always have the camera mou nted
on a firm support, and use a cable release, if you
have one, to eliminate carnera motion. For vertical
mounting of camera, see your dealer tor #16I tripod

the top of the shutter plate.
In general, you will use the 1/300 speed only
for tast-action shots or for scenes that call for
EV settings of 16 or higher. The 1 second, rZ,
LZ, and rl settings are usually used only for
very low light-levelscenes calling for EV settings
of 5 to 8. Do not try to hand-hold camera at
these slow shutter speeds.

Here's how to use it: Set Aperture Control Lever

push in on locking lever (see picture) and move
it upwards, toward the flash connector pin.
Aperture and shutter are now locked together.
You can now turn shutter speed control ring as
far as it will go in either direction and still preserve the same EV setting.The fastest speed
