Notice CANON Prima Zoom 80u

« “1” appears on the frame counter. If the frame counter shows a blinking “0”, the film did not load correctly. Load the film again. Close-up Photography When the shooting distance is closer than 1 m/3.3 ft., there is a difference between what you see in the viewfinder and the picture you actually take, and therefore the part of the picture outside the close-up frame will be cut off. After locking the focus on your subject, bring the subject into the close-up frame, compose the shot and take the picture.
