ABSTRACT:
A film-engaging mechanism for incorporation in a camera which uses self-developing film has a receptacle for a film cassette and a processor for developing the film. The receptacle houses a replaceable film cassette, positions it to align the foremost film unit therein at the image surface of the camera, and advances each film unit for transport to the processor. The processor is aligned to receive each film unit advanced out of the receptacle, and subjects it to the critical operations that assure proper photographic development. The film-engaging mechanism thus brings together, in a single, readily-mounted assembly, the camera structure necessary for engaging a self-developing film unit in a camera to ensure proper photographic treatment, but leaves the design, construction and fabrication of the camera otherwise free of the film-engaging requirements.
