5. Bulb Exposure [ ]
The shutter stays open for as long as you press the shutter button. By
connecting the optional Remote Switch 60T3 to the camera’s remote con\
-
trol socket, you can keep the shutter open without holding the shutter b\
ut-
ton pressed. Use this mode when long exposures are required, such as
for pictures of night scenes and fireworks displays.

tor.

•In bulb exposure mode, the LCD panel’s frame counter display counts t\
he elapsed time
from when the shutter was released, starting over every 30 seconds. One \
battery check
bar ( ) appears on the display after every 30 seconds, allowing time measurem\
ent
up to 120 seconds using all three bars.
• This camera’s bulb exposure operation is designed to consume very lit\
tle power, realiz-
ing virtually no drain on the battery.
• LCD panel illumination is turned off during bulb exposure operation.    \

• To cancel multiple exposure mode in mid-operation, repeat steps 2 and 3 \
to set the
frame counter to a blank display.    
When taking multiple exposures on a single frame, you should decrease th\
e exposure value for each
exposure using exposure compensation. See “7. Exposure Compensation”\
 on page 42.
Approximate exposure compensation
•The above values should be used only as a guide. The actual compensation\
 amount
required depends on the shooting conditions and should be determined by \
prior testing.    
When taking multiple exposures on the first or last frame of a roll, the\
 curl of the film may
cause subject images to shift slightly out of alignment.

IV  Configuring the Camera
This section describes how to change vari-
ous camera settings such as the film speed
and film winding and rewinding modes, allow-
ing you to precisely configure the camera for
specific shooting situations.

1. Manually Setting the Film Speed
The film speed can be set manually when using non-DX film or when you
wish to set a film speed other than the DX-coded film speed.
•Set the film speed after loading the film.
• The manual film speed setting range is ISO 6~6400. When using DX film, t\
he
automatic film speed setting range is ISO 25~5000.      
1While simultaneously pressing the AF
mode selector and metering mode
selector/flash exposure compensa-
tion button, turn the main dial to the
left or right until the desired film
speed is displayed in the LCD panel.
•When the AF mode selector and
metering mode selector are pressed
simultaneously, “ ISO” and the current-
ly set film speed are displayed in the
LCD panel.    
2Release the AF mode selector and
metering mode selector/flash expo-
sure compensation button to com-
plete the film speed setting.

This custom function can be used to pre-
vent the camera from automatically set-
ting the film speed according to the film’s
DX code. When this function is set, the
camera does not change the manually set
film speed when changing film, handy
when using many rolls of the same type
of film in succession.

2. Changing the Film Winding Mode
Two film winding modes are available: single exposure mode and continu-
ous exposure mode.
●Single Exposure ( )
The film advances one frame after each picture is taken. After taking a \
picture,
return the shutter button to the half-pressed position to prepare for th\
e next expo-
sure while keeping the exposure value locked (possible only when camera\
 is set to
One-shot AF and evaluative metering mode).
●Continuous Exposure ( )
Pictures are taken continuously at a rate of approx. 3 frames per second\
 as long as
the shutter button is held pressed.
♦Attaching the optional Power Drive Booster E1 provides the following two\
 contin-
uous exposure modes:
●Continuous Exposure ( )
Pictures are taken continuously at a rate of approx. 3 frames per second\
 as long as
the shutter button is held pressed.
●High-Speed Continuous Exposure ( )
Pictures are taken continuously at a rate of approx. 6 frames per second\
 as long as
the shutter button is held pressed.    
1Open the palm door and press the
film winding mode selector.
•The current film winding mode is dis-
played in the LCD selector.
• The timer keeps the film winding mode
displayed for approx. 6 seconds after
you release the selector.

Film Winding Automatic Gear Switching Function
If film winding becomes an excessive burden to the camera due to a sharp\
 drop in battery
capacity (which can occur when shooting in a cold environment), the fi\
lm winding system
automatically switches gears to reduce the winding speed and minimize ba\
ttery drain.
When this occurs, one of the film winding mode indicators ( • • • ) blinks in
the LCD panel.
To cancel this function and return to normal-speed winding, open the pal\
m door and press
the < > button and < > button simultaneously or when you replace the film or
battery. When the camera automatically switches to reduced-speed winding\
, check the
battery level (see page 15) and replace the battery or prepare a new b\
attery as indicated.
• When film winding or rewinding stops in mid-operation, the “ ” indicator blinks in the
LCD panel. When the battery is replaced with a new one, film winding con\
tinues auto-
matically. If the camera stopped in the middle of rewinding, press the f\
ilm rewind button
()  to continue the rewinding operation.
• Do not dispose of the battery if its capacity drops due to cold shooting\
 conditions. Its
capacity may return when it returns to normal temperature.

3. Changing the Film Rewinding Mode
In normal operation at the end of the roll, the camera automatically
rewinds the film at high speed and winds the film leader completely into\
the cartridge. Using custom functions F-1 and F-2, however, you can
change the camera’s film rewinding operation as described below:
• Custom Function Nos. F-1 and F-2 can be used in combination.
• For instructions on how to change the custom function settings, see “\
1. Setting
and Resetting Custom Functions” on page 82.

At the end of rewinding, the camera winds the film leader all
the way into the cartridge.
At the end of rewinding, the camera leaves the film leader
outside the cartridge.

seconds from when you press the shutter button. When using the self-
timer, place the camera on a tripod or a steady surface.
