Adjustment procedures
Fasten two screws beside Mini mirror
(L9).
Without mounting a
lens, look at f-stop indicator window above the picture frame
whether it is visible in the proper place.
f-stop indicator window should be located above the picture frame
separately one or one and half times wider than the width of
f-stop indicator window.

Adjust mini-mirror
(L8)
position bending the cover of it with
finger or tweezers so that f-stop indicator window might come
in the correct position.
(Caution:
Every corners of picture frame must be visible during
this adjustment.)
After attaching the lens (standard lens etc.), each f-stop should
be clearly visible in the center part of f-stop indicator window.
If each f-stop is not visible clearly in the center portion, for
instance visible in upper or down part, adjust Mini mirror
(L9)
position loosening two screws evenly beside of it and pulling
it with tweezers so that f-stop might come just in the center.
And if f-stop deviates either left or right from the center portion,
loosen or fasten one of the two screws.
