[Beginners' Tips] Read Before You Begin Shooting

Dear Friends of Rollei 35AF,


Before you dive into capturing those awesome moments, we’d love to share some helpful tips to ensure you get the most out of your shooting experience. A few quick pointers upfront can really amp up your photography adventure!


SUGGESTED FILMS


FUJIFILM / Kodak / ILFORD

For the first few rolls, use trusted film brands to familiarise with operation.



INSERTING THE FILM


Push the film leader through the slot on the side with the three white arrows, ensuring that 2 sprocket hole lengths are past the slot.



ADVANCING THE FILM


Advance lever winds all the way, in one smooth motion.
Do not stop in the middle of advancing.



CLOSING THE BACK


Apply slight pressure on the top of the cover while continuously closing the back.



TURNING OFF


Always advance the film after taking a shot, until the shutter button pops back up.


Do not switch to 'off' whilst the shutter button is still down.


Happy Shooting - Viel Spaß beim Fotografieren!

Warm regards,
Rollei 35AF Team
