Method and apparatus for blocking direct ambient from striking self- developing film unit

摘要

A camera apparatus is disclosed for exposing photographic film of the self-developing type and for then processing a film unit to initiate formation of a visible image therein as it exits from the camera. The film unit is a relatively flat, flexible unit having on one side of the unit a light transmissive major surface and on an opposite side of the unit an opaque major surface. The apparatus includes structure located on the housing in adjoining relation to a housing exit slot for directing each exiting film unit along an exterior portion of the housing with the light transmissive surface maintained close to and facing the housing portion so that the light transmissive surface is blocked from direct exposure to the ambient light.
