Abstract

The camera is for use with film cartridges and is provided with an internal support member within the camera housing which has a film engagement surface thereon. Side walls of a guide channel extend from the support member substantially beyond the plane of the film engagement surface. When the cartridge is fitted in the camera the cartridge web is located in the guide channel together with the film and the film engagement surface presses against the film to bring this into contact with a film conveying surface on said cartridge.
