Advantages of the Advanced Photo System

Easier to load…

Advanced Photo System cameras use the new IX240 type film. This new film features drop-in-loading to make loading your camera simple, the first time, every time. Indicators on the

cassette tell you and your camera if the film is unexposed, partially exposed,

exposed, or processed.

New print formats…

Classic (C), wider (H), and panorama (P) print formats are available with Advanced Photo System cameras.

New processing…

In addition to returning your prints in the format you selected, certified photofinishers will return your Advanced Photo System film in its

original cassette with an index print. To order reprints,

simply choose the images you want from the index print. No more searching through negatives to find the right frame.
