While most sound projectors will record a nd play at 18 or 24 frames per -s econd, sound is improved at the lasler speed. Therefore , if a sound track will later be added to your film, it is recommended that you shoot at 24 f r ames-per -second. Alig n the number 24 with the white triangle above the Dial . The use of 12 fr ames ·per·second speed will be discussed later. Rotate the A·M·e Ring until " A " (automatic) aligns with the black dot.

-LOOK THROUGH THE VIEWFINDER

The viewfinder gives you several important items 01 filming informa· tion at a glance . Bright, Erect Viewing, Throu g h · The· Len s Th e scene at which the camera is pointed, and which is covered by the lens, is clearly delineated within the frame of the finder. The field is actua lly carried from the lens t o your eye by an internal system of pr isms.

You're looking t hroug h the lens

Focusing by Split·lmag e In the center of the viewing screen is a split-image rangeflnder. First, adjust this rangeflnder image to your personal vision by rotal· ing the Eyesig ht Adjusting Ring @ until the horizontal line dividing t he two halves of the rangeflnder appears sharp. Then. lock the eye· piece in this position by turning the Eyepiece Lock @. If t he camera is out·ol ·focus, all vertical lines will appear to be broken in the range finder . Rotate the Focusing Ring @ until these lines appear continuous and unbroken.

ZOOMING Your Nikon Super Zoom ·S movie camera is equipped with a S. I X zoom lens of incomparable quality.

T he lens trave ls its full range f r om

To zoom-up to telephoto, press the " T " posilion on the Power Zoom

objects will grow larger . This effect is observable in the viewfinder.

To zoom-away to wide·ang le , pr ess the" W" position , and the oppo

Zooming the lens wh ile the camera is running causes the sam e effect

to be captured on the film that you observe in the viewfinder.

If a

total zoom is not desired, the Switch may be released at any point,

and the lens will instan tly stop its zoom·trave l.

Manual Focal · Length Settings

A very valu ab le feature of the zoom lens is its capacity to be se t any where between its telephoto and wide · angle extremes for pleasant .

frame ·filling compositions .

For accura te settings, rotate the Manual Zoom Ring @ until the view·

finder shows the desired cove rage of field . The local· leng t h at wh ich

the lens is set may be read on the scale provided on the Manual

Zoom Ring.

The setting is that which is aligned with t he black indi·

cator line on the left side 01 the lens barrel.

If the needle swings anywhere between F/ l.S )the white area just before "2 ") and F116, the light is all right , and eKpo5ure w ill be correct . The aperture scale tells you what lens opening the automatic el[' posu re syst em has selected for correct exposu r e. It i s also ex tr emely useful when manual exposure se ttin gs are made, as will be explaine d later , For conven ience, se veral of the int er med iate aper tu re va lues in the scale have been r epresented by symbols, as sho wn below .

" NON·STANDARD" SHOOTING CONDITIONS

Runnln l Spee d Control As previously ment ioned, standar d silent shoot ing speed is 18 frames -per·

second. Sound speed is 24 f rames-per ·second. The Running Speed Control

has a third position: 12 frames· per-second .

If the light is too dim to shoot at 18 or 24 fps, correct exposure will often

be achieved by selecting 12 fps. Of course, everything moving in the scene

will appear to be speeded up, so its best to use th i s speed whe n only st a·

tionary objects appear in the scene.

On the other hand, t his" speed ·up" effect is often desi r ed for comedy

effects.

In this case, the 12 frames -per· second position may be selected

at any time.

Similarly. the 24 fps position will have the effect of slowine

everything down slightly, i f the normal 111m speed is 18 Ips.

This is a kind

01 creative control your Nikon gives you for special·effects filming .

The Automatic Exposure System is keyed to the Speed Selector . and it

automatically compensates when the fliming speed is changed.

Manual Exposure Control

It is sometimes desi r able to set exposure manually rather than automatically, to compensate for back·

lighting or strong sidelighting or for special effects.

(For example, simulated moonlight shot by bright

sunlight may be achieved by a 2 F.number underexposure.)

To select an aperture setting manually, push

in on the A·M·C Ring l ock (1), and move the A.M .C Ring anywhere off .. A " . Then, look through the view.

finder and rotate the ring until the aperture needle points to the desired F·number.

The automatic ex

posure setting selected by the camera may be used as a reference for correct exposure when a deliberate

over· or under·exposure is desired .

When the full 50 feet of film have been exposed, a red square will appear in the lower teft corner of the viewflnder. Th e Footar;a

To Unlo ad The Came ra Open the Cartridge Chamber Cover and lilt up the rear end of the car· t ridge. The cartridge may then be lifted out of the camera. Th e word " Exposed" will be visible on the end of the film. Take the cartridge to you r dealer for proces sing as soon Be possible , It wil! be returned to you as 50 f eet of

Wh e n Th e Ca m e ra II N ot In Use Retract the Pistol Grip by pressing down on the Grip Release· Lock @ and swinging the Pi stol Grip up until the Latch @ clicks onto

the latch Pin @. Turn the Run-LOck Control to .. L " position .

Replace the

len~

cover, and the camera is r eady for storage.

If the

camera is to be stored for a long period of time, it is a good idea to remove the penlite batteries from the Pistol Grip.

T he mercury

batteries, however , may sa fely be permitted to remain in the camera.

Si n g le- Fram e Ex posures To expose one frame 01 flIm at a time, insert a standard cable r elease into the Single·Fr ame Socket @'

Each

time

the cable release is actuated, o ne frame of film will be exposed. This is a useful feature for making an im ations . .. bringing objects to life and having them skitter acr oss a table·top. For this effect, the object is moved a quarter· inch or so before each exposure. Again, t o obtain maximum camera steadiness while the single.frame feature is being used, the camera should be mounted on a tripod or a similar support. Re m ote Con trol Fil mlna: An accessory remote control cable is available from your Nikon dealer.

T he free end of this cable plugs into the

Remote Control Socket @, thereafter set the Run·lock Control to "L" position which the Trigger is being de· pressed.

The controls on the other end o f the ten·foot

cable are then used to start and stop the camera.

This

feature enables you to take movies of yourself! It is also extremely useful for filming nature studie s of shy wildlife creatures, or for filming in hazardous or uncomfortable areas .

FILMING INDOORS AND OUTDOORS

A type·A filter is built into the camera.

This flIter conv(:,ts

outdoor light so it may be used with tungsten-balanced (Type·A) film.

The f11ter is normally in the light path, so no action

need be taken when f11ming outdoor s with Type·A film. When filming indoors with a Super·S Movie Light, the key of the light is inserted in the Movie-Light Slot @.

The dust

cove r that protects this slot when it is not in use is easily

removed. If photofloods or other movie lights not equipped w i th the key are used, the special key provided with the camera is used to swing the Type·A filter out of the light path. the key into the Slot.

Remove it after the shooting session

is ended, and replace the dust cover.
