Good to know
Without a battery, you can still shoot without flash, and the selenium-powered automatic exposure keeps working. [3]
The built-in flash holder takes AG-1 flashbulbs and has to be pulled all the way out before you can use flash. [2]
A warning mark in the viewfinder tells you when there isn’t enough light for a correctly exposed shot. [2]
