ABSTRACT:
Apparatus in a photographic camera for moving an exposed section of a filmstrip loaded into a camera from the exposure gate to a curl-developing area located along the film transport path after a predetermined period of camera inactivity as measured by an included timing circuit so as to prevent the onset of a reverse curl. According to the invention, the apparatus includes a control mechanism for automatically advancing a succeeding unexposed film portion to the exposure gate upon reactivation of the camera.
