Once the film back has separated from the camera body, you 

need to open it to insert your film. Remove film magazine cover 
28 by first turning little black catch 30 and then shifting metallic 
button 29 in the direction of the arrows. 

Take out transport mechanism 34. Tear off the paper label 

from the film leader end. Rotate plate 32 through 90°, place the 
spool with the film into the seat and reset plate 32 to the initial 
position. In this case the protruding center of the plate should 
enter the spool hole. 

Set plate 33 to the initial position so that the protruding center 

of the plate will enter the spool hole. Pass the film leader on the 
guide roller, as shown in the Figure (at the left), fit the leader end 
in the take-up spool and wind the leader by rotating the take-up 
spool.  

Be sure that the leader will be wound without skewing or 

crumpling of its edges. Lift one half of knob 31 by turning through 
90° and by rotating it in the direction of the arrow set on the 
leader opposite to the red index on the transport mechanism. 
Insert dark slide 11 into the seat as far as it will go. Close film 
magazine cover 28. Turn handle 31 in the direction of the arrow 
until it stops. The number "1" will show in the exposure counter 
window 26 which corresponds to the first picture on the roll and 
the white colour indicator will appear in window 25. 

 
3.3. Preparing the Camera for Shooting 
 
Cock the shutter by turning knob 23 until it stops. Fit loaded magazine 10 on the camera catches and press the top of 

the magazine towards the camera until the latch clicks. When installing the film magazine with a partially exposed film, 
be sure that the colour of signals in windows 24 and 25 match, otherwise a double exposure or a blank frame will occur. 
The state of film transport vs. shutter cocking is displayed by the colour of signals in these windows (ref. to the Table).

3.4. Shooting 
 
The operation of the camera breaks down into the following steps: 
 

1.  Shutter cocking and film transport 
2. Shutter 

speed 

setting 

3. Aperture 

setting 

4. Composition 
5. Focusing 
6.  Mirror lock up release (optional) 
7. Shutter 

release 

 
Cock the shutter and advance the film by turning knob 23 all the way. It is absolutely necessary to avoid incomplete 

cocking. At the beginning of the shutter cocking a slight increase of the force applied to the knob may be required. 
Always wind the shutter cocking / film advance knob or crank fully, by turning it clockwise until it locks. You must hear a 
noticeable click when the lock engages. 

 
When the shutter is being cocked: 
 

- 

the film is automatically advanced; 

- 

the next frame number is set in window 26; 

- 

the white signals are set in windows 24 and 25; 

- 

the mirror is lowered to the viewing position; 

- 

the lens diaphragm aperture is fully opened. 

 
Set the shutter speed with knob 23 when the shutter is cocked. Pull the knob and turn it in any direction until the 

exposure time value on scale 21 coincides with index 17 arranged on the camera body. Lower the knob in this position 
so that it locks. 

 
Set the lens diaphragm by turning ring 6 with scale until the chosen diaphragm aperture value coincides with the 

index. The scale is fixed on all marked divisions of apertures.
