Abstract
A device for storing exposed film for a photographing and developing apparatus comprises a first pinch roller pair provided in the vicinity of a storage reel, a second pinch roller pair provided at a spacing from the storage reel and a guide means for guiding exposed film from the first pinch roller pair to the second pinch roller pair. The first and second pinch roller pairs, the guide means and associated film transport roller means are controlled as to the direction of rotation and position, whereby an exposed film portion supplied from a photographing unit is taken up once on a film storage reel and then reliably fed to a developing unit by the action of the guide member.
