Changing the remote release battery
1. Open the battery compartment cover by sliding it in
the direction indicated. (Fig. 12)
2. Remove the old battery and put in the new one with
the “+” at the top.
3. Close the battery compartment cover which should
click into place.
• Use a 3 V lithium battery (JS CR 2025).
Remote release
The optional remote release (Fig. 11) allows wireless
remote control of the camera.
1. First switch to remote release with the self-timer but-
ton (SELF).
Two-shot self-timer
1. Press the self-timer button until the double self-timer
symbol
appears in the LCD panel.
2. Press the shutter release. The self-timer symbol
starts to flash in the LCD panel. The first exposure is
made after about 10 seconds, with the second shot
following some 2 seconds later. (Ex. 19 and 20)
Notes:
• Focusing and exposure data are calculated when the
shutter release is pressed. Don’t stand in front of the
camera when you press the shutter release.
• Place the camera on a firm base or use a tripod. This
ensures that your framing won’t change after releas-
ing the shutter.
• With flash shots, the delay between pressing the shut-
ter release and the exposure can be longer since the
flash has to recycle.
2. Set the focal length in the same way as on the cam-
era, using the zoom lens button on the remote re-
lease. Every press of the zoom button moves the lens
up or down on step in the following range: 28, 45, 60,
75, 90 mm.
3. The exposure is made 2 seconds after you trigger the
remote release, giving you time to get into position.
Notes:
• To ensure accurate framing, it is preferable to set the
focal length on the camera beforehand.
• The remote release is available from your Rollei
dealer.
• The remote release unit can be attached to the strap.
