Locking up of the mirror inside the camera is required when using the
Fisheye-NIKKOR 6mm f:5.6
and
10mm f:5.6
lenses, because of its deep seated mount. It is also important for continuous shooting
in high speed with the Nikon Electric Motor Drive, for a sequence of copying work or for
vibration free in macro/micro close up photography.
To lock the mirror in the "up" position, turn the knob ( #9 ) counterclockwise until the black dot on the knob meets the red dot on the camera body. Wind the shutter and then shoot (a blank exposure is made). The reflex mirror will move up out of the way, and will not return after the shutter has operated. To return the mirror to its original focusing and viewing position, turn the knob clockwise until the black dot on the knob meets the black dot on the camera body. This should be done after the shutter is released. Otherwise, the mirror will not return to the position until the next exposure is made. Note that if the knob is turned after the film advance lever is wound up, the mirror does not return until the shutter is released (a blank shot is made). |
