ABSTRACT:
A method of assembling a one-time-use camera comprising the steps of placing one of a longitudinal series of edge perforations in a film leader of a filmstrip to be exposed in the camera onto one of an annular series of peripheral teeth of a metering sprocket rotatably supported on a main body part of the camera, and fitting a rear cover part of the camera to the main body part to make the camera light-tight, is characterized in that the rear cover part is fitted initially to the main body part with some separation between the two, and with a center portion of the rear cover part bowed in close proximity to the one tooth to prevent the metering sprocket from substantially rotating, and the rear cover part is fitted finally to the main body part with no separation between the two to make the main body part light-tight, and with the center portion of the rear cover part retracted from the one tooth to permit the metering sprocket to rotate.
