Film Door Removal

The film door attaches to the main body via two arms that hinge on two pins.

1. To remove the film door it must first be opened by pressing down on the latch at the side of the camera, just as if you were going to load some film.

This will now make visible the two pins that the film door is hinging on.

2. Apply pressure to both arms with your finger and thumb, aiming to unhook the side that that latch is on first.

3. After one side has came loose, the other can be wiggled out.

Follow the steps in reverse order to reattach the film door.
