Step 8Operation
To take photos with your newly hacked Spectra.
1. Load cut film holders with film.
2. Expand the camera by activating the slider switch on the left side.
3. Open the film pack chamber by depressing the lever on the right side of the camera.
4. Press metal tab at the film door closure until it clicks to fool the camera into believing that the film chamber door is closed.
5. Insert the film holder into the film chamber ensuring the film holder is fully to the left to engage the camera's sensors.
6. Turn on your battery pack and ignore the noise the camera makes (it is trying to eject the dark slide for the film pack).
7. Pull out the top dark slide.
8. Compose your exposure and press the shutter release half way to engage the autofocus.
9. Once you are satisfied with your composition, press the shutter release fully to expose your picture.
10. Ignore the grinding, ejecting noise (nothing will happen because you took out the ejection hook).
11. Reinsert dark slide.
12. Turn off the battery pack.
13. Pull out film holder and reverse the film holder.
14. Turn on battery pack.
15. Repeat.
It sounds more laborious that it is. Once you have it down, it will take only a few seconds to get ready for a shot. Here is a video of the standard operation:
