Yours doesn't? Mine has - but it's a little unusual...
There's a circular switch on the baseplate. You slip in a coin and rotate
it 90degrees anti-clockwise. A few shiny metal bits fall into your hand -
these are the cleverly-thought-out reminder tokens. You put them in your
pocket or camera bag to remind you that the camera is turned off. When you
want to turn the camera on again, you can store these reminder tokens back
in the receptacle on the base, and rotate the big one 90 degrees
clockwise to safely close the little locker.
Brilliant!
