Apparatus for enabling an operator to mount an unexposed film on and demount an exposed film from the drum of a color scanner via a light-blind window

Abstract

An apparatus for mounting an unexposed film on and demounting an exposed film from a color scanner is described. The color scanner includes a recording chamber, a rotary drum therein and cassettes for containing unexposed film and exposed films which are normally mounted in communication with the recording chamber but which are detachable therefrom. There is described a light-blind window in the recording chamber which will permit an operator to extract an unexposed film from an unexposed film cassette, mount it on the rotary drum, and after it has been exposed, remove it from the rotary drum and place it in an exposed film cassette which then may be taken to a developing unit.
