ABSTRACT:
A camera comprising a backframe opening for exposing successive sections of a filmstrip, and a deflector supported at one end of the backframe opening for movement to permit a leading edge of the filmstrip which is advanced against the deflector to move the deflector away from the backframe opening to allow the leading edge to be advanced over the deflector rather than become trapped in the backframe opening, is characterized in that the deflector is flexible and has at least one fixed peripheral side and at least two adjacent free peripheral sides to permit the deflector to be flexed away from the backframe opening at the free peripheral sides, but not at the fixed peripheral side, when the leading edge of the filmstrip is advanced against the deflector.
