Use standard 35mm film rolls.

  2. قم بوضع خرطوشة فيلم جديدة مقاس 35 ملم في حجرة الفيلم على الجانب الأيسر.
  3. Pull the film leader across to the film take-up spool on the right side. Ensure the film perforations engage with the teeth on the take-up spool.

  2. Use the zoom buttons (usually near the shutter button) to adjust the focal length (38mm wide-angle to 115mm telephoto).
  3. Gently press the shutter button halfway down. The auto-focus system will engage, and an indicator light (often green) will confirm focus.
  4. Press the shutter button fully down to take the picture. The film will automatically advance to the next frame.

3. أوضاع الفلاش

The camera features an automatic flash. In low light conditions, the flash will typically fire automatically. Some models may offer manual flash override or red-eye reduction modes. Consult the camera's specific indicators for flash status.

4. إعادة لف الفيلم

Once all frames on the film roll have been exposed, the camera will usually rewind the film automatically. If manual rewind is necessary (e.g., to change film mid-roll), locate the rewind button (often a small recessed button on the bottom or side) and press it. The film counter will count down as the film rewinds into the cartridge.

Once rewinding is complete, open the camera back and remove the film cartridge. Take the exposed film to a photo lab for development.
