PANAFLEX MILLENNIUM
5.1 Attaching the magazine
The Millennium incorporates a magazine port
on the top and back. The top port is generally
fitted with a 1000' magazine, while the rear
port is used with a 400' magazine in hand held
or Steadicam configuration. Mounting for each
port is the same.
The magazines mount in locking dovetails.
The magazine and port each incorporate a set
of contacts. The contacts are located to the
front (lens) and must mate for proper opera-
tion. In the case of the rear port, the contacts
are located on top. Before placing the magazine
on the camera port, pull 6"to 8" of film out of
the magazine into the film compartment. The
lock is located just in front of the contacts. The
lock is located on top if the magazine is mount-
ed on the rear port.
Rest one end of the magazine on the camera,
feed the film loop through the magazine port
and lock the magazine securely in position.
