Continued on following page.

LOADING FILM

Your camera uses IX240 type film designed for use in Advanced Photo System cameras. Your cameras automatic transport system loads the film, sets the film speed, and advances the film after each exposure. Use film from ISO25-3200. Your camera will automatically set the proper ISO. After loading, the film chamber cannot be opened until the film has been rewound. There is no need to worry about double exposure. DEP, Double Exposure Prevention, prevents the camera from accepting exposed film.
If no display appears, replace the battery or check that it is inserted correctly. Auto Power Off: The data panel will shut off and the lens will retract if the camera is not operated for more than eight minutes. Press the shutterrelease button partway down, or press either zoom button to resume operation. Do not obstruct the lens while it is retracting.
Visual Exposure Indicators
The current VEI has a white indicator behind it. This camera can load film with the or VEI current. Only partially-exposed (VEI ) film rewound in a Minolta camera with Mid-roll Change can be loaded in this camera.

4. Press the film-chamber door closed until it clicks.
The data panel will display the cassette mark and the films ISO, then the number of frames remaining on the roll. If a partially-exposed roll of film (VEI ) is loaded into this camera, the film will be advanced to the first unexposed frame.
After the film is loaded, pressing the filmchamber release will display the films ISO in the data panel. The display will disappear about 2 seconds after the finger is released. The film chamber cannot be opened until the film has been rewound.
If 0 blinks in the data panel, press the filmchamber release, open the chamber, then remove the film. - If the films current VEI is , insert film with the or VEI current. - If a processed roll of film was loaded into this camera, the VEI has been changed from to. - If the films current VEI is or , remove the film, remove and reinsert the battery, then reload the film. If the film will not load, contact the nearest authorized Minolta Service Facility.

FULL-AUTO OPERATION

3. Looking through the viewfinder, frame the subject as desired. Press the W zoom button to zoom out. Press the T zoom button to zoom in.
Do not hold or obstruct the lens barrel.
5. When the green ready lamp glows, press the shutter-release button all-the-way down to take the picture.
If the ready lamp does not glow, the flash is not charged. Wait until it glows, then take the picture. If the ready lamp blinks quickly and the shutter is locked, your subject is too close (p. 29). Press the shutter-release button with a slow steady squeeze - never a quick jab.
4. Center your subject in the focus frame, then press the shutter-release button partway down.
If the close-framing guide appears in the viewfinder, move the camera slightly upward without lifting your finger (pp. 30-31).
After use, close the lens cover to turn the camera off.
If the lens is extended, follow the instruction on the next page to close the lens cover.

FOCUS HOLD

Subjects outside the focus frame may not be in focus. Use focus hold to ensure accurate focusing.

1. Center your subject in the focus frame. 2. When the lens has retracted completely, shut the lens cover.

FOR CLOSER SUBJECTS

2. Press and hold the shutter-release button partway down so the green ready lamp glows.

The minimum focus distance of this camera is 40cm (1.3 ft.) when the print format is C or H. The green ready lamp will blink rapidly and the shutter will lock when you are closer than the minimum focus distance.
When the print format is P, the minimum focus distance changes with the focal length; 47cm (1.5 ft.) at W (22mm), 1.1m (3.6 ft.) at T (66mm), and middle distance for middle focal length position. If the subject is very close, the ready lamp may glow or blink slowly and the shutter may be released, but the picture will not be in focus.
3. Without lifting your finger, recompose the picture and press the shutter-release button all-theway down to take the picture.
Lift your finger from the shutter-release button to cancel focus hold.
CLOSE-FRAMING GUIDE (FOR C AND H FORMATS)
If your subject is farther than the minimum focus distance but close enough to cause parallax, the actual image and the image seen through the viewfinder do not match. In this case, the close-framing guide appears in the viewfinder when you press the shutter-release button partway down. Follow the instructions in the next page to take the picture.

2. Follow steps 1- 3 from automatic rewind.
The films VEI indicator will be.

MID-ROLL CHANGE (MRC)

Your camera has the MRC feature, which allows film to be rewound in the middle of a roll and reloaded at a later time. When reloaded, the camera will advance the film to the first unexposed frame. Film can be rewound and reloaded until the last frame is taken, when the camera automatically rewinds the film and sets the VEI to. Cameras without the MRC feature set the VEI for partially-exposed rolls to. Cassettes with the VEI current can not be reloaded.
Only partially-exposed film rewound in a Minolta camera with Mid-roll Change capability can be reloaded into this camera. Film rewound in another manufacturers MRC capable camera may not function properly. The MRC feature may not work properly when loading a partially exposed roll of film (VEI ) in the following situations; near a strong electromagnetic field generator such as a speaker, PC monitor or mobile phone. Insert the film at least 1m (3.3 ft.) away from these places.

PROCESSING

For best results, take your film to a Certified Advanced Photo System photofinisher displaying this symbol (p. 74).

CARING FOR YOUR CAMERA

OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND CONDITIONS
This camera is designed for use from 10 to 40 C (14 to 104 F). Never leave your camera where it may be subjected to extreme temperatures such as in the glove compartment of a car. At colder temperatures, the data panel response time will be slow. At higher temperatures, the display will temporarily darken, but will restore when the temperature normalizes. Never subject the camera to extreme humidity. To prevent condensation from forming, place the camera in a sealed plastic bag when bringing it from the cold environment into a warm environment. Allow it to come to room temperature before removing it from the bag. When photographing in cold weather, it is recommended that you keep the camera and spare batteries inside your coat to keep them warm when you are not shooting. Cold batteries will regain some of their charge when they warm up. This camera is not water proof, dust-proof, or sand-proof; take care when using it at the beach or near water. Costly or irreparable damage may occur.

CLEANING

Keep the AF and Meter windows clean or the focus and/or exposure may not be accurate. If the camera body is dirty, gently wipe it clean with a soft, clean, dry cloth. To clean the lens surface, first brush away any dust or sand then, if necessary, moisten a lens tissue with lens cleaning fluid and gently wipe the lens in a circular motion, starting from the center. Never place lens fluid directly on the lens. Never touch the lens surface with your fingers. Never use alcohol or solvents to clean the camera. 78

STORAGE

When storing the camera for extended periods, please follow these guidelines: Store the camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from dust and chemicals. For very long periods, place the camera in an airtight container with a silica gel drying agent. Before using after prolonged storage, always check the cameras operation to make sure it is functioning properly.

QUESTIONS AND SERVICE

If you have questions about your camera, contact your local camera dealer or write to the Minolta distributor in your area. If the camera is damaged or the rewind motor does not operate, do not open the film chamber or forcefully remove the cassette. Contact an authorized Minolta Service Facility. Before shipping your camera for repair, please contact an authorized Minolta Service Facility for details.

FILM CASSETTE WARNING

The film used in Advanced Photo System cameras stores some data magnetically. Do not place the cassette on or near anything that creates a magnetic field, such as a television or stereo speakers.

CAMERA ERROR

If all the indicators in the data panel blink or the data panel is blank and the camera will not function with a fresh battery, remove and reinsert the battery. If normal operation does not resume or the camera malfunctions repeatedly, contact an authorized Minolta Service Facility.

BEFORE IMPORTANT EVENTS
