Q: Is it acceptable to apply non-DX coded films with this camera?
A: No, the camera was intended for use only with DX-coded films. If non-DX coded films are applied, the camera will automatically set ISO 25 as the film speed.
Q: And how does the red-eye reduction feature operate?
A: To dampen the red-eye effect in portraits, the camera makes use of the flash red-eye reduction function, which activates the flash twice.

Q: What other precautions would I have to take while using the camera in low temperatures?
A: If used at normal room temperatures of say 20 to 30 degrees, the camera works normally. However between -10 degrees to say 50 degrees C, the camera will work, though if it is too low such as -10, battery life will be affected and hence performance may temporarily be lowered.
Q: How will I know when the battery is about to die?

Q: But what if the camera cannot be able to focus? What do you advise me to do then?
A: In such cases, the auto-focus system sometimes can be corrected by focusing such a subject close to the one you would like to lock onto. That is to say, you don’t have to zero in on the subject you want the camera to adjust to.
Q: Is it possible to use this camera for panoramic shots?
