Do you push the release button with the tip of your index finger? Or do you place your finger so that it extends slightly over and to the left of the release button (i.e. with the button just underneath the midpoint between the first and second section of the finger) and then release by straightening the finger? (This was the method proposed in the manual for the old Contax M cameras in the sixties.) Do you put the thumb below the advance lever and and press the lever up to counteract the downward pressure on the release button?</fontfamily> - -- christer almqvist eichenstrasse 57, d-20255 hamburg, fon +49-40-407111 fax +49-40-4908440 14 rue de la hauteur, f-50590 regn=E9ville-sur-mer, fon+fax +33-233 45 35 58
