1. Setting Film Speed (ASA/DIN)
Rotate the ASA/DIN dial, usually located around the lens barrel, to match the speed of the film you have loaded (e.g., ASA 100, 200, 400). This setting informs the camera's light meter for correct exposure.

2. Osredotočanje
The Optima 535 Sensor is a rangefinder camera. To focus, look through the viewfinder and align the split image or superimposed image in the center. Rotate the focusing ring on the lens until the images merge into a single, clear image. The focusing scale on the lens barrel indicates the distance to your subject.
