ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREApparatus for handling photographic film having a firstformat and alternatively photographic film having a secondformat different from the first format comprises photographicimaging equipment has a first unit including a first photographiclens system and an integral first extension for defining a firstimage aperture, and a second unit including a second photographiclens system and an integral second extension for defining a secondimage aperture. A film pressure plate clamps photographicfilm having the first format and photographic film having thesecond format alternatively against the mentioned first extensionand against the mentioned second extension. A device is coupledto the film pressure plate for actuating said pressure platerelative to the first extension and alternatively relative tothe second extension. These actuating means are mounted in astationary relationship relative to equipment for releasablymounting the first unit and alternatively the second unit. Photo-graphic film having the first format and alternatively photographicfilm having the second format is guided past the film pressureplate by equipment mounting on a carriage which is movable relativeto the film pressure plate. Film guiding means include a filmguide base on the carriage in the vicinity of the film pressureplate and two exchangeable film guide units for guiding, respec-tively, film having the first format and film having the secondformat.
