then turn the zoom ring farthest to the left in the direction of the camera. Then rotate until the image reaches the desired size, adjust the focus by dragging the camera back and, if necessary, turn the zoom slightly further.

 

Adjust the height of the camera to cover the image and part of the film perforation.
