Loading 35 mm Film

1. Verify that the 35 mm camera back is attached, and turn the film recorder on.

2.Slide the film door button on the camera back down and open the door.

3.Insert the film cassette at an angle into the chamber. Push the cassette in fully, so that the film lies flat against the track.

Do not touch the shutter when loading the film.

2. In a darkroom, load the 4x5 film holder with film.

Orient the film with the notch positioned as shown.

Some 4x5 films are available in Readyload packages. When used with the Polaroid 545 or the Kodak Readyload Packet film holder, you can load the film holder outside of a darkroom.

3.Pull open the outer section of the camera back enough, but no more than 2”, to slide the film holder in.

Do not pull the outer section too far. This can cause the camera back to pop out of the springs and require Service Center repair.

Insert the 4x5 film holder into the camera back from the right.

To avoid light leak, make sure that the left side of the film holder lies snugly against the left side of the outer section of the camera back.
