Stereo Kodak Model No.1 For Stereo Pictures Before loading or attempting to take any pictures with the Kodak read the following directions carefully and become thoroughly familiar wivh the instrument, taking special care to learn the construction .of the shutter; wor
First, to open the Kodak, gras.p the instrument with the left hand, and remove the back by pressing in simultaneously with the thumb and second finger of the right hand on the two metal catches, then lift up the back. Second, the Kodak now being opened, an empty winding reel with a slit in it will be seen. This is the reel onto which the fi lm is wound after exposure. The full spool of film is placed in the cham'ber at the opposite end of the Kodak.
Turn the winding key slowly until the figure 2 appears exactly in the center of the red window in the back of Kodak, which signifies that the film is in p'o sition for the first exposure. For all eX'P0sures use even numbers, i. e., 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, as each Stereo negative has two separate negatives. Shutter Used on Model No. 1 The scale at the bottom of the shutter indicates th e opening of the iris diaphragm, according to the F sys- tern.
100, are graduations of from 1 second u.p to 1;100 of a second. 1£ the indicator is set on 100, 50 or 25, instantaneous exposure is obtained, although, of course, the 25th is a longer exposure than the 100th. Five is about % of a second, 2 about ¥.!, and 1 approximately 1 second. 11he shutter works automatically and is arranged for either bulb or finger release. Stops or Diaphragms 11he stop or diaphragm is the opening which regulates the amount of light passing through the lens.
then be in a position over the 100 foot mark. When foousing on subjects that are closer, use the pillion controlled by the milled head at the edge of tlhe bed of Kodak, and rack front forwaro until the indicator is over the distance on fhe scale which corresponds to the distance from which the principal subject is to the lenses. Before closing fhe Kodak see that the pinion is turned 'back · to the limit of motion, as otherwise the bed of Kodak wiH not close properly.
Do not try to photograph moving objects at less distance than twenty-five feet. Endeavor to catch them at an angle or coming toward camera. In ph'o tographing . a tall building at close range and pointing camera upward, lines in photo will Ibe found very irregular and to converge towards the top, on account of "top being a greater distance from the camera. When possible, you should obtain a position as near as you can to the horizontal line of the center. The same ruJ.

Flash Light Pictures By the introduction of Eastman Flash Sheets, picture taking at night has been wonderfully sirniplified. A package of flash sheets, a piece of cardboard, a pin and a match compolete the list of essential extras, although a Kodak Flash Sheet Holder is a great convenience. \Vith flash sheets, no lamp is necessary, there is a minimum of smoke and they are far safer ~han any other self-burning flash medium, besides giving a softer light that is less trying to the eyes.
it to cast a shadow in front of the Kodak An extra piece of cardboard a foot square placed under the flash sheet will prevent any sparks from the flash doing damage. However, by using the Kodak Flash Sheet Holder, all these contingencies are taken care of, and we strongly advise its use. The Kodak Flash Sheet Holder This holder may be held in the hand, always between you and the flash sheet. Or it may be used on any Kodak tripod, being provided with a socket for this pupose. The ..
There will be a bright flash which will impress the picture on the sensitive film. Then close the shutter and turn a fresh film into place with the key, ready for another picture. The Flash Sheet The size of the sheet required to light a room varies with the distance of the object fart>hes,t from the camera, and the color of the walls and hangings.
Eastman FJash Sheets burn more slowly than flash powders , produci ng a much softer light and are, therefore, far r>refera'ble in portrait work; the subject however, should be warned not to move, as the picture is not taken instantaneously, about one second being required to burn one sheet. Eastman Flash Cartrid ges Eastman Flash Cartridg es may be substitu ted for th e sheets if desired. VI/ e recomm end the sheets, however . as more conveni ent, cheaper and capable of produci ng the best results.
'vVe recommend that the amateur do the work complete as it will be found very interesting and the p rocess is very simple. When sending film to us for finishing, pack ~ecurel)' and mark as follows: EASTM,A·N KODAK CO., R ochester, N. Y.

flow over the film, and placing in the third Fixing Bath made from Kodak Acid Fixing Powder . and for NOl'E~Proper t~mperature is importa nt, the best results the develop er should be at 65 degrees Fa'hr., and the fixing bath and wash water should be kept be~ween 50 and 60 degrees Fahr. If the deve loper is too warm, the negative s are very liable to fog, and in many cases the support will be softened and the surface will be very much more liable to injury through scraoching.
may remain until the balance of the strip has been developed, and then they can be developed one at a time. It takes usually from 5 to 10 minutes for development. according to the amount of exposure. When sufficient density has been obtained, wash the negatives thoroughly and place them in the Acid Fixing Bath made from Kodak Acid Fixing Powder, until the milky appearance has disappeared. This usually requires from 5 to 10 minutes.
Defective Negatives Bj following closely the foregoing directions, the novice can make seventy-five per cent. or upwards of good negatives. Sometimes, however, the dir~tions are not followed, and failures result. To forewarn the camerist is to forearm him. and we therefore describe the common causes of failure.
This defect would be caused by a mistake in removing film from the developer too soon, by using solutions too cold or by an error in compounding chemicals. It is obvious that neither of these defects will occur in Tank Development if instructions are properly followed. Intensification by Re-Development There are a number of different processes for intensifying under-developed negatives; the most common being by means of Bichloride of :Mercury, and Sodium Sulphite or Ammonia.
Film may be developed in daylight by the Kodak Film Tank method. Detailed directions for developing will be fo und in the manual which accompanies the goods. For use with the Stereo Kodak, provide a 30 inch Kodak Film Tank. We recomm end the Kodak Film Tank method particularly for its simpleness and the uniformly good negatives which it gives.
Stereo Self-Transposing Printing Frame For Use with Develo pin e· O ut Paper- Price, $2. 00 paper first to one side and then to the other, protecting from the light the portion which has already been printed. This Self-TranSiposing Printing Frame gauges the distance so that the separation is proper, and when the print is viewed through the stereoscope it is properly separated, so as to get perfect perSipective.

Place the paper in an ordinary printing frame, in th e same manner as 'When using printing-out paper, having the emulsion side of the paper toward the dull side of the negative.
