Motor Drive

One of the most exciting new accessories for the F3 is the

MD-4 Motor Drive. This amazingly compact and stream-

lined unit attaches to the bottom of the camera in seconds

and advances the film either singly or in sequence form

up to a rapid 6· frames per second-making it the fastest

regular production motor drive on the market today.

Actual controls have been reduced to only those

neces-

sary for convenient operation

In addition to the electro-

magnetic trigger button (which also turns on the camera's

meter when depressed halfway), there is its concentric

S-C (SINGLE/CONTINUOUS) mode selector, a battery

check button and LED indicators, two interlocking

re-

wind slides for automatic film rewinding, and a sub-

tractive frame counter which stops the motor at the

desired number of frames for use in cold weather. Eight

AA-type penlight batteries fit into a qUick-release clip

housed in the base of the motor drive. An optional NiCd

battery pack is available for use in cold weather or when

you want the fastest possible firing rate

Once you attach

the MD-4 to your camera,

you'll

never

want

to take it off .
