QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q: What kind of subjects are difficult for autofocus? And what
should be done in such cases?
A: The following subjects are difficult for autofocus; therefore,
use the focus lock to focus on another subject at the same
distance or, when the subject is at a distance, use the Land-
scape mode.
1. Glossy subjects.
2. Black objects.
3. Scenes shot through glass or metal netting.
4. Objects such as smoke or fire that have no substance.
5. Scenes in which the sun appears in the picture.
Q: When a cartridge is inserted, the motor can be heard but
the film does not advance.
A: Remove the cartridge and check the visual exposure indi-
cator. If the visual exposure indicator is set to
O
(unex-
posed) re-insert the cartridge; otherwise, insert a new car-
tridge.
Q: What happens if the cartridge cover is opened with a par-
tially exposed cartridge inside?
A: Close the cartridge cover immediately. There is possibility
of the film in the cartridge being exposed and rendered
useless; therefore, the film will be rewound. In such cases,
insert a new cartridge.
