Figure 6-7 The camera/magazine connection. (1) A gear (A) on the magazine connects to the
winding mechanism (B) of the camera. The opening (C) is for the pin (D) that comes out of the
camera when the darkslide is out and the release is pressed. The 2000FCM and 2003 models also
have a shutter retraction control (G). (2) When the darkslide is inserted, a piece of white metal
(B) covers half the opening so that the pin cannot penetrate and the release cannot be pressed.
The magazine lock button (A) can be pressed only when the darkslide is fully inserted. (3) The
handle of the magazine slide (A) is moved to one side to clear the fi lm insert. (4) It is best to
insert the magazine slide with the handle toward the camera front. E, ECC, and TCC magazines
and camera models with a built-in metering system also have the four electronic connectors.

of the magazine to the right, move the top of the magazine away from the camera, and lift

darkslide inserted, hook the bottom of the magazine onto the lower two support catches
of the camera body (B). Pivot the top of the magazine toward the camera latches (A) while
pressing the magazine lock (C) to the right. Remove the darkslide.
