Ko?ak until the side arms catch.

Draw out the lens standard by the

knurled finger grips, Fig. II, page 14.

Operating the Shutter

In the illustration, A is the indicator

that adjusts the shutter for instanta-

neous or time exposures.

The dial B eontrols the diaphragm

or stop openings indicated by the

numbers l, 2,3 and 4, which appear in

the eircular opening on the front of the

shutter near the letter B.

C is the exposure lever; one move-

ment, either up or down with indicator

A at "I," makes a snapshot or instan-

taneous exposure; and two movements

-one to open the shutter and another

to close it, with indicator A at "T,"

make a time exposure.
