To Focus rHE CeupneOn the bed of the camera is a focusing

scale, with slots marked 8,25 and 100 feet.The scale is marked both for feet andmeters and care should be taken not toconfuse the figures.

When the lens standard is drawn outthe slot marked 100 feet, the camera isfocus for anything 100 feet or beyond.

To adjust the focus for subjects at distances nearer than 100 feet, press the springcatch or locking device on the side at thebottom of the lens standard, and draw outthe standard to the slot marked 8 or 25,depending upon the estimated distancebetween the camera and the princ'ipalobject to be photographed, see Depth ofFocus Tables on page 13.

The distance between the subject andcamera can be estimated without measur-ing, unless the subject is close to the camera;foi instance, if the focus is set at the slotmarked 25 feet (the usual distance for ordi-nary street scenes), everything-from aboutfouiteen feet to about seventy-five feet willbe in good focus.

For distant views, set the indicator inthe slot marked 100 feet, and when thesubject is about eight feet from the lens,set the indicator in the slot marked eightfeet. When the camera is focused for eightfeet, the subject can be about five feet fromthe camera if the smallest stop opening isused, see table on page 13. A time exposurewill be necessary when using the smalleststop opening. The subject can be closerthan five feet to the lens if a Kodak PortraitAttachment is used, see pages 30 and 31.

When using the camera as a fixed focustype, nearby subjects must be in brightsunlight, to obtain fully exposed negatives.

The range of sharpness when your Hawk-Eye is adjusted as a fixed focus camera 'villbe found in one of the tables on page 13,

. DBPTH OF FOCUS

Depth of focus is the distance from thetreareit to the farthest objects that willappear sharp in the negative or print. Thed-epth of focus of any lens depends upon thesiz-e of the stop opening used. The smallerthe stop opening the greater the depth offocus. See the following tables for the depthof focus or range of sharpness of the Nos. 2and 2A Folding Cartridge Hawk-EYeCameras:

These stop openings are marked with the"U.S." or Uniform System which is basedon the relation betrn'een the area of the stopand the f ocal, l,ength of the lens. Stop U.S. 8is the largest opening and admits the mostlight. U.S. 16 is half the size of U.S. 8 andadmits just half as much light and so onfor each higher number (smaller stop open-i tg) .

The exposures must be doubled for eachsucceeding higher number (smaller stopopening). For example: If the correct ex-posure using stop U.S. 8 is speed 50, theequivalent exposure using stop U.S. 16will be speed 25. See comparative expo-sures using different stop openings givenon page 27.

U.S. 8-For all ordinary outdoor pictures,such as nearby landscapes showing little orno sky, groups and street scenes, when thesubject is in bright sunlight, use speed 25;for moving objects in bright sunlight, usespeed 50.

U.S. 16-For open views, when the sun-light on the subject is unusually strongand there are no heavy shadows, such as

views at the seashore and on the water,use speed 50; for ordinary landscapes, inbright sunlight, with clear sky overhead,use speed 25; also for Interior Time Expo-sures, the time for which is given in thetable on page 28.

U.S. 32-For instantaneous exposures ofextremely distant landscapes, marines, snowscenes with no prominent dark objects inthe foreground, and clouds only, in brightsunlight, use speed 25; also for portraitsoutdoors, see pages 29 and 30, and otherTime Exposures.

U.S. 64-For Time Exposures Outdoorson cloudy days, see page 32. For portraitsoutdoors, see pages 29 and 30 ; and for InteriorTime Exposures, see page 27. Neaer forinstantaneous exposur es.

IMPORTANTRead this manual thoroughly before you make

any pictures.

While loading and unloading the camera, be verycareful to keep the protective paper wound tightlyaround the fi lm to prevent l ight striking it.

Before making an exposure be sure that theshutter is adjusted properly, using the correct stopopening and speed. The camera must be focused andan unexposed section of fi lm in position.

The sun must be behind your back or over theshoulder. I f the sun shines di rect ly into the lensit will blur and fog the picture.

Hold the camera level.Hold the camera steady when making instanta-

neous exposures or snapshots. The camera shouldbe held firmly against the body and when pressingthe push:pin or the exposure lever, hold the breathfor the instant. If the camera is noved during theexposure, the picture will be blurred.

Turn a new section of fi lm into position immedi-ately after making an exposure. This will preventmaking two pictures on the same section of fi lm.

Never oil the shutter.Keep the lens and inside of the camera clean.Instructions for making time txposures, indoors

and outdoors, are included in this manual.
