A filmstrip consisting of a series of coherent frames is passed through a copying station where images of the frames are projected onto an elongated band of copying paper to make proofs of the frames. The images are projected in such a manner that the relative orientations of the images are the same as the relative orientations of the frames.

Method of and apparatus for the production of photographic proofs

A film picker for a film cartridge comprising a flat body having at its end a cartridge fixture adapted to be pressed against an outer surface at an inlet of the film cartridge, and a thin elastic guide plate, extracting plate and film pressing plate extending from the end of the body in an overlapping manner with one another. The guide plate and the extracting plate have a width which is substantially the same as that of the film rewound within the cartridge, are individually movably held relative to the body and are coupled with associated actuation buttons. The film pressing plate is fixedly secured to the body with its end being curved in a direction away from the film fixture. Thus, a simple and easy extraction of the film may be ensured without any damage to the picker plate.
