h. Photograph a subject as follows:

(1) Rotate the camera housing through an arc

of 180° clockwise. This rotation positions the film so that

one-half of the frame of film will be exposed and

releases the double exposure prevention mechanism so

that the shutter will operate.

(2) Insert the appropriate letters and numerals

into the grooves of a titleboard and secure the titleboard

holder assembly (fig. 1-3 and para 2-4c).

(3) Position the subject. Adjust the camera

set height as follows:

(a) Loosen the telescope clamp screw

on the tripod.

(b) Adjust the inner tube so that the end

of the titleboard holder assembly is against the subject's

chest and the top of the titleboard is approximately 4

inches below the subject's chin.

(4) Have the subject look at the stereoscopic

attachment; press the release button.

(5) If another pair of photographs of the same

subject is required, repeat the procedures outlined in (1)

and (4) above after the neon indicator of the strobe

assemblies lights. If a pair of photographs of another

subject is required, repeat the procedures outlined in (1)

out of the camera to expose the yellow tab.

(2) Grasp the protruding yellow tab (fig. 3-8)

and pull the film, with a straight, continuous motion, out

of the camera.

(3) After a period of 10 seconds, grasp the

corner of the print and carefully remove the print from the

film (fig. 3-9). Handle the print only by its edges.

Do not allow the print-coating

applicator to pick up dust in the area;

the printcoating will transfer dust to

the finished print.

(4) Remove the print-coating applicator from

its container.
