Cannon QL Film Camera User Manual


 
Film Loading
Canon PELLIX QL accepts any standard 35mm film in cartridge for daylight loading.
èWhen loading a new film, avoid direct sunlight. 4 When repacking a long-wound film for darkroom loading into the ordinary
cartridge, trim the end of the leader part in between the perforations.
1. Open the back cover.
Raise the back cover lock, make a half turn to the left, and the cover will rise. Open the back cover fully. When the back cover is
opened, the QL cover also opens simultaneously and is ready for loading the film.
è The QL cover automatically opens and closes together with the opening and closing of the back cover. Do not touch the QL cover.www.4.butkus.org
2. Insert cartridge.
Raise the rewinding knob all the way. When the cartridge has been inserted, push the knob back to its former position again. Push the
fork into the axis of the cartridge. In case the knob does not fully return, it can be easily put into proper position by turning it slightly to
the left or right.
3. Set film tip to the red mark.
Face the cartridge as shown in the picture and hold the film down with the left hand so that it does not rise.
4. When the back cover is half closed, the QL cover presses down on the film. Check through the sprocket window whether the film
has been engaged correctly onto the gear.
5. Close the back cover.
Press down to prevent the cover from rising, then turn the back cover lock clockwise to close.
