How to Load a 35mm Film Camera

Thank you for making this. My art teacher is kinda spacey and kept forgetting to help put our film in the cameras. I was able to do it while he was chattering and leave on time

I panicked. So I think I did it right but thought I did it wrong as I couldn't like pull the lever twice only once. as it went stiff so I think that was indicative to take a shot.
Hopefully I did it well and the photos turn out good. Thank you for the tutorial.

This was helpful. But as someone with adhd, I just wanna let you know that the music choice was distracting. Maybe lower the volume of the music or pick something more subtle in the future. Cheers

This is a relief. I just loaded someone else's camera without having done it myself before, and I did it right.

Nice video. Straight to the point.

Just needed a refresher. Terrible and unnecessary music, but okay video. I thought you'd probably need to wind it on a little more as some of the film would be exposed?

How often do I have to use the advance lever after I put the film in the spool? I saw some people doing 2 full rotations but I'm not sure if that already took some space of the roll.

why did you crank that film advancer twice ? sorry i'm completely new to film

Question, do you have to do it in the dark or is the first shot not out when you're loading?

i've also made a video about the kodak film camera, it would be great if you could leave some feedback! I'm just starting out :)

I want a frame burn in my first frame. How can I get that?

Idk if you read this, but I wanna know if my film is still fine after this:
- when I loaded the film, it was bulging up, but I make sure it was nice and taught by winding it.
- when I put my film in, I couldn't push the rewind knob all the way down, only half way down. I was able to click it in after the first wind (???)

I just wanna know if these are bad habits or if they might actually screw with the film.

Finally, somebody explains that you have to insert the end of the film into the take-up spool.! Thank you!!

How does that lens perform? I’ve been hearing mixed reviews about it.

Just a question with exposure, should the film changing be done in the same bag that i use to develop the film roll afterwards or is it fine

what an insightful video and great tutorail
thanks for sharing
i hope this will encourage more people to shoot film!
