2 Insert film

Place film base up ( 26) between the guides with the left end of the film at the film line. If a masking sheet is used, the start of the first exposure should be aligned with the inner edge of the masking sheet. Additional film strips can be placed in the holder as space permits; place the film end-to-end, with no gaps.

Inserting Film

Use only one type of film; do not place negatives in the holder with positive film.

Be sure to align the end of the film with the film line on the holder. A gap at the leading edge of the film could interfere with accurate color reproduction.
