Fed2e Question

[robin a]

I understand the rewind release ring is pushed down and held to rewind film back into the film cassette,that is position "B".What is the letter" C "for,and how do I get the knob to turn to it? Also,how does one get the alignment on the sesitivity scale to the film type indicator?This is giving me fits and the LITTLE book I bought off Ebay is no help.Other than that this camera is FUN.1st roll going in tonight.

Hallo Robin -

The "c" mark simply shows that the camera is ready to wind on: that it's not in "rewind" mode. Once the film has been rewound and removed , just press lightly on the collar and turn it anti-clockwise (as seen with the back of the camera towards you). The shutter release mechanism will then rise to its normal "ready" position.

The sensitivity scale is adjusted by simply pushing one of the little knobs on top of the dial and continuing until the desired film type and sensitivity meet!

Cheers, Ian
