Calumet C2 - Loading Film

[Pat Bunn]

I have a used Calumet C2 roll film back and have no instructions on loading film. It is obvious how to load the film, but I see no mark to position the loading "arrows" on the roll film backing.

Any help would be appreciated.

If you can't find anything else, thread the film through, close the back, pull the dark slide a hair, and advance the film until the edge of the tape holding film to backing paper appears in the gate. Slide the dark slide in, advance the film a little, zero the counter (I assume this can be done) and go. Best to try this with a roll of scrap film.

Good Evening, Pat,

I recall that this topic was address in the Forum a while back, probably within the last three or four months. If you can't locate those posts with a Search, just send me a PM and I'll be glad to help.

Good Evening Again, Pat,

Just forgot--the advice above from Dan seems logical, but setting the counter to Zero when the opening frame is in position will put your last couple of exposures beyond the end of the film and onto the backing paper.

You can download the instruction sheet from Calumet's web site. Use the search feature there to locate it.

I have a copy of the manual for the C2"N" model. I have posted it on a website and will leave it there for a week. I hope it helps.
