Step 2: The Take-up Side
Step 2 can be performed in daylight.
• Press the safety button on the take-up side magazine door and flip the door lock up. Turn the door lock
counter clockwise until it stops and remove the magazine door.
• Slide the film head into the lower magazine throat opening until it emerges inside the take-up side.
Note: The loop-length is unimportant at this stage. It will be set once the magazine is on the camera.
• Place the head of the film into the collapsible core, clamp it in place and wind clockwise a couple of turns.
• Put the magazine door back on the magazine and lock it. Double check by pulling up on the door.
Step 3: Setting the Counter
The magazine display will count down the loaded footage if it has been entered during loading.
• Activate the magazine display by pressing the MODE button until the letters "ft" appear in the display.
• Press the left SET button to increase the footage counter value by 100'. Press the center SET button to
increase the counter value by 10'. Press the right SET button to increase the counter value by 1'.
If you have loaded a full roll of film, you can quickly enter 393' by pressing the left and right SET buttons
simultaneously on a 400' magazine, or 983' by pressing the left and right SET buttons simultaneously on a
1000' magazine. It is assumed that some footage was used for loading purposes.
• When using timecode, now is a good time to set the proper timecode sensitivity (TCS) value. Press the
MODE button until the letters "TCS" appear in the display. Pressing any of the three SET buttons will
increase the TCS value by 1. See the table at the end of the Quick Guide for the proper TCS values.
