Advantages of the Advanced Photo System
New print formats…
Classic C print, wider H print, and panorama P print formats are available with
Advanced Photo System cameras.
New processing…
In addition to returning your prints in the format you
selected, certified photofinishers will return your
Advanced Photo System film in its original cassette
with an index print. To order reprints, simply choose
the images you want from the index print. No more
searching through negatives to find the right frame.
Easier to load…
Advanced Photo System cameras use the
new IX240 type film. This new film
features Drop-in Loading to make loading
your camera simple, the first time, every
time. Indicators on the cassette tell you
and your camera if the film is unexposed,
partially exposed, exposed, or processed.

CHECKING THE BATTERY POWER - CONT’D LOADING FILM
Your camera uses IX240 type film designed for use in Advanced Photo
System cameras.
Your camera’s automatic transport system loads the film, sets the film
speed, and advances the film after each exposure.
Use film from ISO25-3200. Your camera will automatically set the
proper ISO.
After loading, the film chamber cannot be opened until rewind has been
initiated.
DEP, Double Exposure Prevention, prevents the camera from
accepting exposed film.
This camera will only load film with the mark current.
If no display appears, replace the battery or check that it is inserted
correctly.
Auto Power Off: The data panel will shut off and the lens will retract if
the camera is not operated for more than eight minutes. Press the
