User manual ROLLEI ROLLEIFLEX 4.0 FW

[. . . ] These are followed by a detailed description with pictures of all important aspects of the camera, guiding you step by step from assembling the basic camera modules right up to removing the exposed film. This in turn is followed by a number of practical tips and additional information on the workings of your camera as well as its major accessories. A tabular annex gives all important data of our line of interchangeable lenses. In the case of operating errors ­ which even an experienced photographer might make in the heat of a shoot or after prolonged non-use of the camera ­ a trouble-shooting guide will help you locate possible causes and find a way to correct them. [. . . ] Note: Should the working range be exceeded in flash bracketing, the icons +/­ and will blink. MasterWare allows the user to set bracketing to two to five exposures with an exposure compensation of up to ±9/3 EV for each of the shots.

A red square on the dial serves as an additional warning that the film advance has been disengaged. Before the last of a multi-exposure series reset knob 45 to "SE" (Single Exposure) and press to re-engage the film advance for the next-following shot with normal exposure. Between multiple-exposure shots, you may view your subject in the viewfinder as usual. Note: The "ME" setting is inactive if a type 4560 magazine is used. Film advance will be disengaged directly on the magazine ­ see Operating Instructions of magazine. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 55 MULTIPLE-EXPOSURE . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . A multiple-exposure alternative is the filmadvance custom function ("SF trAn"), see "Custom functions". In this case, the film advance is disengaged electronically, and the reflex mirror remains locked up after the first exposure. This means, however, that viewfinder observation and renewed exposure metering as well as focusing are impossible. On the other hand, this form of multiple exposures allows higher shooting rates, and it is adjustable via MasterWare. To terminate multiple exposure, either switch 31 off before the last exposure or press the mirror-lockup button 73 after the last exposure. Notes: In the latter case, serial photography is impossible. With the master switch set to "C", the camera responds as if "S" had been set. The display will also appear when no lens is attached. » "Error 3"*: AF electronics malfunctioning. Check your lens if this display appears frequently. » "Error 4": Magazine 4560 malfunctioning: No film loaded or film-advance problem. *(6008 AF only) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 59 DEFAULT SETTINGS . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
