BASIC OPERATION
D Loading the Film
The Canon EF uses color or black and white film in standard 35mm cartridges. To load a cartridge into the camera, first open the camera's back cover. Fold out the rewind crank, grasp it and pull the rewind knob up sharply. The back cover will pop open. Put the cartridge into the film cartridge chamber, push down and rotate the rewind knob until it drops into its fully-seated position. Pull the film leader across the camera and push the tip into one slot of the multi-slot take-up spool. Advance the film once, making certain the sprocket holes of the film are engaged in the teeth of the film transport sprocket. Close the back cover until it snaps shut. Gently turn the rewind crank clockwise to take up the slack in the film and then fold the rewind crank back in. Operate the winding lever two more times while watching the rewind knob. If it rotates, the film is loaded properly. If the knob fails to rotate, then open the back cover and reload the film.
