ABSTRACT:
A camera comprises a cartridge receiving chamber for receiving a film cartridge with a filmstrip having a protruding film leader, a film take-up chamber, and a backframe opening between the cartridge receiving chamber and the film take-up chamber at which the filmstrip except for the protruding film leader is to be substantially exposed. A film support is movable to a leader supporting position within the backframe opening to substantially bridge the backframe opening in order prevent a forward-most reduced width portion of the film leader from falling into and becoming jammed in the backframe opening when the forward-most reduced width portion of the film leader is initially advanced over the backframe opening to the film take-up chamber, and to a retracted position substantially removed from the backframe opening to permit the filmstrip to be exposed.
