Mamiya 6 User Guide

1. Press the shutter release button when

you have focused and determined compos-

ition.

2. Advance the film by winding the film

advance lever until it stops. (The shutter is

then cocked.)

3. After completing the last exposure, wind

the advance lever several times, until the
film with its backing paper is completely
wound onto the take-up spool. The advance

lever will become easier to actuate when

the film has been completely wound on the

spool.

 When the shutter release button is pressed and

the film is exposed, a red LED will light on the

upper right side of the viewfinder.

1. Open the back cover and remove the roll

of film. By pushing the spool stud release

lever to the right, disengage and remove the

spool. As shown, the roll of film can be eas-

ily removed from the take-up chamber if you

push up the spool up a little-it will then lift
out. When the back cover is opened, the
exposure counter will automatically return to

'S' (start).
2. Be careful not to let the roll of exposed

film unwind. Be sure to seal it immediately.

l 

To prepare for another roll, remove the empty

spool from the film chamber, and place it in the
take-up chamber.

l 

Wind  the advance lever until it stops.  (Other-

wise, a red LED in the viewfinder will signal that it

is

 

impossible  to press t h e  shutter release button.)

l 

Do not advance the film too quickly, as this might

adversely affect film flatness, or frame spacing.

 To remove the film before exposing the entire

roll, cap the lens and press the shutter release but-
ton and wind the film onto the take-up spool frame
by frame.
