i just bought my first analog camera, it's a Chinon 35 EE-II from 1978 and there's one thing confusing me about it.
there's this one lever (thing in red circle) which doesn't seem to do anything, i read the manual and it says that it's apparently some "lock for function control ring" yet even when i pull it up it doesn't lock anything. am i doing something wrong? also is the camera usable without batteries? the manual says that the batteries should only power up some automatic exposure control thing. sorry if i sound like an utter retard
