INTRODUCTION Welcome to the exciting world
of CHINON photography. Your CHINON CG-5 electronic compact 35mm SLR represents
state -of-the-art design and engineering. Employing a full information
electronic viewfinder with variable intensity LED's, the CG-5 will be easy
to operate even under the most adverse lighting conditions. The two stage
electro magnetic shutter release button will permit metering operation
(stage one) and shutter activation (stage two).
Your CHINON CG-5 is designed with built-in electronic
auto focus contacts that will permit automatic AF operation when the camera's
shutter release button Is depressed when used with the new CHINON 35 -
70mm AF lens. This advanced feature ensures accurate focusing every time,
since shutter activation will not occur unless the 35 - 70mm AF lens is
in proper focus. (Mike: and if you can't get a focus, it won't fire.

LENS MOUNTING
Your CHINON CG-5 is equipped with a CHINON bayonet
mount which accepts all interchangeable lenses with the bayonet mount.
To attach the lens, match the red dot on the camera body with the red dot
on the lens (Fig. 1). Then insert the lens into the camera body and turn
it clockwise until the lens locks with a click. To remove the lens from
the camera body, depress and hold the lens lock release lever on the camera
body, turn the lens counterclockwise as far as it will go, and lift it
up from the body (Fig. 2).
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Using a coin, unlock the battery chamber cover by
turning it counterclockwise. Place two 1 .5V Alkaline batteries (SR-44,
A-76) or equivalent (G-13, LR-44, MS-76) in the battery chamber with the
negative (-) side facing downwards, or contacting the battery cap since the
camera is now upside down for this installation (Fig. 3). Carefully insert the batteries
into the camera body. Replace and tighten the cover securely by turning
it clockwise (Fig 4). NOTE: Clean the batteries with a dry cloth or paper
before inserting and thereafter at regular intervals. Make sure that the
batteries are inserted correctly, i.e., check polarity. The shutter will
operate only when batteries are correctly installed and not exhausted.
Body Grip (Spare battery storage compartment)
You can attach an optional (standard in U.S.) body
grip to your CG-5 camera (Fig. 5). To do so, attach the body grip to corresponding
body grip setting holes on the camera and tighten the screw on the bottom
of the body grip by turning it clockwise. The body grip has a convenient
battery storage compartment in which you may store one set (2 pcs.) of
spare batteries. To remove the batteries from the compartment, pull on
the battery holding lever (Fig. 6).
BATTERY TESTING
Set the shutter speed dial to any shutter speed
setting (except "B" and "OFF" position) (Fig. 7), and while looking at
the shutter speed indicator scale in the viewfinder, slightly depress the
shutter release button. If the batteries are in good condition (battery
potential is high enough) at least one of LED indicators (except the top
two LED's) will light up. (Fig. 8) if a LED fails to illuminate, the batteries
are too weak and need to be replaced, they are incorrectly inserted, or
the shutter speed dial is set in "OFF" or "B".
FILM LOADING
Pull out the film rewind knob until the camera back
pops open (Fig. 9). Then drop a film cartridge into the film chamber with
its protruding end facing the bottom of the camera (Fig. 10).
Push in the film rewind knob and slightly turn the
knob in either direction until it catches the film cartridge spool. Insert
the trimmed end of the film into a slot of the multi-slotted take-up spool.
Turn the shutter speed selector to any setting except "AUTO" or "OFF" and
advance the film while holding the film lightly down on to the transport
sprockets. Release the shutter if necessary and advance the film until
the sprockets engage with the upper and lower perforations of the film
(Fig. 11). Then close the camera back firmly until it locks with a click.
Now turn the film rewind knob gently until all the slack is taken up and
the rewind knob stops. Do not force or further rewind the film (Fig. 12).www.4.butkus.org
 |
 |
Advance the film and release the shutter three times
(Fig. 13). The rewind knob should rotate counterclockwise as
the film is advanced and the "1 " marking should appear in the frame
counter window (Fig. 14). Turn the shutter speed dial to the "AUTO" position
(Fig. 15). A convenient memo holder is provided on the back of your
camera. Whenever you load new film, just cut off the top of the film box
and put it in the memo holder as a reminder (Fig. 16).
 |
 |
FRAME COUNTER
You CHINON CG5 equipped with a frame counter which
displays the number of exposures made and resets automatically upon opening
the camera back. At the very beginning the counter shows "S" indicating
the start of the picture taking process. When a film is loaded according
to the procedure previously described, the counter displays "1 " indicating
that the camera is ready for the first exposure. Every time the film advance
lever is turned the counter will proceed one stop forward. The numbers
24 and 36 are colored in orange to warn the end of commonly available films
(Fig. 17).
FILM ADVANCEMENT
When the film end is reached the film advance lever
may stop before the lever is fully turned. Do not force the lever. Stop
winding at once and rewind the film. Refer to "UNLOADING EXPOSED FILM."
ASA SETTING The film speed dial located on
top of the camera is coupled directly to the internal exposure control
circuitry and the correct exposure factor for the film is automatically
set by aligning the ASA number of the film you are using with the index
mark on the camera body (Fig. 18). The ASA number of the film is printed
on the film box or in the instruction sheet packed with the film. Pull
out the film speed dial and turn the dial to align the appropriate ASA
number with the green index mark. Be sure to check the ASA number whenever
you put new film into the camera.

FOCUSING
At the center of the viewfinder is the split image
with microprism collar which is then surrounded by ground glass. When the
camera is in focus, the image on these focusing aids becomes sharpest.
While observing the subject through the viewfinder, turn the lens focus
ring until the upper and lower split images match up to form a uniform
image (Fig. 19). This split image focusing is particularly helpful when
the subject is dominated by vertical lines. The microprism is also very
helpful. When it is out of focus, the image on the microprism will be composed
of a collection of asterisks (Fig. 20). These sparkling asterisks will
disappear when the focus is properly set. You can double check the focus
setting by the image on the ground glass.www.4.butkus.org
You can also focus indirectly. Actually measure or
estimate the distance to the subject and set the lens focus ring to the
appropriate setting (Fig. 21).
AUTO FOCUSING
Your CHINON CG-5 has built-in AF electronic contacts
which activate CHINON 35 - 70mm Auto Focus Lens by depressing the shutter
release button of the camera or the Auto Focus Button on the auto focus
lens unit. To activate the AF system, operate the film advance lever, look
through the viewfinder, center the subject by utilizing the split image
with microprism collar in the viewfinder, then depressing the shutter release
button halfway. The focusing ring will automatically rotate until the subject
is in focus (Fig. 22). You may also focus by depressing the auto focus
button on the auto focus lens unit. When the camera is in focus, the green
AF LED in the viewfinder will glow (Fig. 23) and the shutter can be released.
 |
 |
AUTOMATIC EXPOSURE
Your CHINON CG-5 features TTL, center weighted full
aperture light measuring automatic exposure control. As long as the shutter
speed dial is set in "AUTO" you don't have to worry about the exposure
factor (Fig. 24). The sensitive and accurate internal circuitry will compute
the correct exposure for the photographic condition and control the shutter
speeds stepless from a 1 sec. time exposure to a fast 1/1000 sec. When
the shutter release button is depressed halfway, the exposure control circuit
is energized and will be in the monitoring stage (Fig. 25).
You can see the computerized shutter speed displayed
in the viewfinder by red and green LED's (Fig. 26). If the lens F stop
or the aperture size is too large for the lighting condition, the red over
exposure indicator (third from the top of the scale)
will glow (Fig. 27). when this happens, stop down the lens diaphragm by
turning the lens F stop ring or use a film with a lower ASA number.
Another alternative is to use an ND (neutral density)
filter in front of the lens. They are available as accessories from your
local dealer. If the displayed speed is 1/30 or slower ( Red LED's), use
of a tripod is recommended, or you can increase the shutter speed by opening
the lens diaphragm. Use of a flash unit is also suggested (refer to "CHINON
Dedicated Flash System"). If the computed shutter speed is even longer
then 1 sec. (semi darkness condition), the under exposure indicator (Red
LED) at the bottom of the scale will light up when the available light
is less than 1 EV (Fig. 28).
F STOP SELECTION The following may be used as a guide
to determine the lens F stop when you are using the camera in the automatic
mode.www.4.butkus.org
Sunny day outside . F/8 - F/ 11
Cloudy day outside . F/4 - F/ 5.6
Inside (without flash . F/1.4 - F/2.8
SHUTTER RELEASE AND RELEASE LOCK
Your CHINON CG-5 features a two stage electromagnetic
shutter release with safety lock. When the shutter release button is depressed
half way, the electronic circuit starts functioning. When the button is
fully depressed, it will trigger the shutter. Always hold the camera steady
and gently depress the shutter release button to make an exposure. The
position marked "OFF" on the shutter speed dial is the shutter release
safety lock position. When this is aligned with the index mark, the batteries
are disconnected from the circuit and exposure cannot be made (Fig. 29).
This position is also used when the camera is not to be used for a long
time.
UNLOADING EXPOSED FILM
When the film in the camera is fully exposed, the
film advance lever will stop. Do not attempt to force the lever any further,
but rewind the film and replace with a new one. Push in the rewind lock
release button at the bottom of the camera (Fig. 30). Unfold the rewind
crank of the rewind knob (Fig. 31).
Turn the rewind crank clockwise. You will feel friction
as the film is rewound. Suddenly, when the film is rewound completely,
the friction decreases and the rewind crank will turn with ease. Then pull
out the rewind knob to open the camera back (Fig. 32). When the camera
back is opened, the frame counter will automatically reset to "S". The
rewind lock release button on the bottom of the camera will pop out upon
the next advancement of the film advance lever. Your exposed film should
be processed without delay.
DEPTH OF FIELD
Depth of field designates the nearest and furthest
limits of the area that will be sharp in the picture in front of and beyond
the subject. Depth of field is controlled by the f/stop. The larger the
lens opening (f/stop), the shallower is the depth of field. The smaller
the lens opening, the greater the depth of field will become (Fig. 33 and
34).
Visible Check in the Viewfinder
Set the lens at a selected lens opening on the f/stop
ring. Depress the depth of field lever and observe the subject through
the viewfinder. This will enable you to preview the area of sharpness in
the picture before shooting. (Fig. 35)
Depth of Field Scale:
The depth of field scale indicates (after focusing)
the approximate area that will be sharp in the picture. Locate on the depth
of field scale the corresponding pair of f/stop figures. The distance between
these two f/ stop figures on the focusing ring will be the area of sharpness
in your picture (Fig. 36). NOTE: Do not depress the shutter release button
while depressing the depth of field lever.
USING A TRIPOD The tripod socket at the base of the
CHINON camera is designed to accept standard tripod threads having a depth
no greater than 5.5 mm (0.22 inch). To prevent any possibility of damage
to the camera's internal mechanism, DO NOT use tripods with longer mounting
screws and always avoid over tightening.
SELF TIMER
Your CHINON CG-5 is equipped with a electronic self
timer with a red LED indicator together with a piezo ceramic buzzer (audible
signal). The built-in self timer electronically delays the shutter release
for 10 seconds. First select the desired delay by rotating the self timer
dial (Fig. 37). The camera should be mounted on a firm support during self
timer operation. Now to activate the system simply depress the shutter
release button. You will notice the red self timer LED blinking with the
piezo ceramic buzzer (audible signal) and two seconds before the shutter
release the flashing frequency will increase giving you or your audience
time to smile. The self timer may also be
utilized for releasing
the shutter at low shutter speeds when a cable release is not available.
If you decided not to use the self timer or to change the delay time, you
can cancel or rest the timer even after the function is indicated. Just
return the dial to normal position for cancellation and reset the time
again.
NOTE: Change of delay time can only be made
after cancellation.
MANUAL EXPOSURE
By moving the shutter speed dial Off the "AUTO"
setting manual shutter speeds can be set. There are two methods of
selecting the correct exposure. 1. Set the required shutter speed on the
dial. While depressing the shutter release button until the meter activates,
observe the flashing LED in the viewfinder. Rotate the lens aperture ring
until the second LED aligns with the flashing shutter speed LED on the
scale in the viewfinder (Fig. 38) . 2. Set the required aperture on the
lens. Depress the shutter release button until the meter activates
and observe which shutter speed is indicated in the viewfinder by an LED.
You will also observe a flashing LED in the viewfinder. By adjusting the
shutter speed until both LED's are coincident, correct exposure will result
(Fig. 39).
 |
 |
Time Exposure (Night Photography)
Set the shutter speed dial to the "B" position.
The shutter mirror will reflex to the open (up) position while the shutter
release button is depressed. Use of a cable release and a tripod is recommended
for stability to prevent vibration during time exposures. (Fig. 40)
MULTIPLE EXPOSURE
Another attractive feature of your CHINON CG-5 is
the built-in unlimited multiple exposure provision. The multiple exposure
lever is located in front of the film advance lever (Fig. 41). When you
activate the film advance lever simply press and hold the multiple exposure
lever to the left. This lever should be held throughout the film advancement.
By doing so the film advance mechanism and the film counter will be disengaged.
Only the shutter will be charged when the film advance lever is activated.
Therefore, the film will not advance and you can make unlimited multiple
exposures on any single frame. NOTE: You can make multiple exposures as
many times as you wish. However, each time the multiple exposure lever
must be held before and throughout the film advancement.
EXPOSURE MEMORY
Under normal circumstances your CHINON CG-5 camera
will produce perfectly exposed photographs, due to the integrated automatic
exposure circuit. However, some lighting conditions might occur that could
misguide the system, such as subjects with a very high contrast or strongly
back-lit scenes. In such cases the exposure memory feature should be used.
1. Focus the Subject. Make sure that the
shutter speed dial is set to the "AUTO" position. (Fig. 42).

2. Depress the shutter release button half
way and measure the light on the main part of the subject you want to shoot
excluding all unnecessary light from the side or background (Fig. 43).
Then press the exposure memory button once which will instantly memorize
the light value of the subject (Fig. 44). Once the button is depressed,
there is no need to hold the exposure memory button further as long as
the shutter release button is depressed halfway.
3. Compose the subject in the viewfinder as you
desire (Fig. 45). Then press the shutter release button all the way to
take the photograph. The shutter speed indicator (LED) in the viewfinder
will glow signaling the "memorized" shutter speed once the exposure memory
button is depressed.
EXPOSURE COMPENSATION
Your CHINON CG-5 camera incorporates an exposure
compensation dial which can be unitized for special purposes such as bracketing
exposure, compensation for back-lit or spot lit situations. If you would
prefer darker or brighter pictures than those obtained by the automatic
exposure, this feature is very helpful. You can change the exposure factor
up to one full stop either plus or minus in 1/3 EV increments. Pull out
and turn the Film speed dial to the desired position (Fig. 46). NOTE: After
exposures have been made, be sure to return the dial to the normal exposure
position.
(1 ) -1 EV over (2) - 2/3 EV over (3) -1 /3 EV over
(4) - Normal exposure (5) -1 /3 EV under (6) - 2/3 EV under (7) -1 EV under
THE FLASH SYSTEM
Specially designed and developed automatic flash
units are available for your CHINON CG-5
as
accessories. This highly advanced dedicated flash system permits carefree
flash photography. You no longer have to alter the shutter speed
dial from any position since the flash is integrated electronically with
the camera body. Set the f/stop indicated on the exposure calculator dial
of your CHINON flash
to the corresponding aperture ring on the lens. A few seconds after your
CHINON
flash
is turned to ON
position
the flash ready-light will illuminate.
CHINON
CG-5 has a special viewfinder ready light system
which is electronically coupled to the auto flash. When the flash has reached
adequate power, the shutter speed is automatically set to the 1/90 sec.
and the flash ready indicator (red LED) will glow signaling the camera
flash are ready to operate (Fig. 47). After the picture has been taken
and before the flash has recycled, the camera will automatically switch
to the automatic or manual mode until the flash has once again recycled.
In this case, your flash must be set to the "AUTO" position. Other electronic
flash can be utilized with your CHINON
CG-5 camera. However, if they do not incorporate
a built-in hot shoe, a P.C. cord must be connected to the "X" synchronization
terminal on your C G-5 for
proper flash synchronization. Also the shutter speed dial must be set to
1/60 sec. flash synchronization position (Fig. 48 and 49).
 |
 |
NOTE: When "FP" or "M" type flash bulbs are used,
the shutter speed must be set to 1/15 sec.
Use of a tripod for low shutter speed photography is always recommended.
Always refer to the instructions enclosed with your electronic flash for
additional operating instructions.

CHINON POWER WINDER (PW-535)
Your CHINON CG-5 compact single lens reflex camera
can also be used with the new CHINON Power Winder when motorized photography
is desired. This sophisticated accessory enhances the versatility of your
new camera and opens up new horizons for creative photography. The Power
Winder, designed with latest electronic technology, employs a special computer
"memory" chip which monitors key functions essential to motorized photography
(Fig. 50). When using a CHINON Auto Focus lens with the Power Winder the
shutter will not be released until the lens is in focus. You may utilize
a specially designed remote control unit which permits full automatic remote
control operation from 40M (132 ft.) away from the camera. (Fig. 51) NOTE:
To attach a CHINON Power Winder to the camera body, the body aria has to
be removed from the
