Canon EOS 3000 QD - Manual (Page 20)

Loading and Unloading Film
Loading Film
After you load the film, the camera first winds the entire roll onto the
camera’s take-up spool. Then each time a picture is taken, one frame of
film is rewound back into the film cartridge.
Turn the Command Dial to any
I setting except <(1>.
Slide up the camera back lock-
release lever to open the camera
back.
Insert the film cartridge at an
angle as shown in the figure.
Hold down the film cartridge and
pull the edge of the film leader to
the orange mark on the camera.
Then close the camera back.
• If the edge of the film leader goes
beyond the orange mark, push some
of the film back into the cartridge.
• After you close the camera back, the film
will start winding on the take-up spool
and the frame counter will count up. The
camera will then make a shutter-release
sound and the <@> icon and total frame * •
count will be displayed.
• If the frame counter is not displayed,
it means that the film was not properly
loaded. Take out the film cartridge
and load it in the camera again.
0 » With DX-coded film, the camera automatically sets the film’s ISO speed.
• If the film is not DX-coded, set the ISO speed manually. See page 52.
