The Film Transport Lever (2)

Push the transport lever fully to the right with

your right thumb. Alternatively, work it with a

number of short strokes until it locks. Either way,

this movement tensions the focal plane shutter of

the LEICA and advances the film by one frame.

You cannot accidentally advance more than one frame

at a time or make an exposure before the film has been

properly advanced. Accidental double-exposures are

impossible.

The Release Button (1)

Press the release button gently with the right

index finger. Never jab it! You will hear the click

as the shutter runs down. This exposes the film

in the camera.

After each exposure lift your finger off the release

button. This frees the mechanism so that you can

operate the transport lever.
