Abstract
A control mechanism for a motorized disk film camera which is of simple, compact and inexpensive construction and yet provides one-button operation to expose the film and actuate a motor which disengages the film and cocks the shutter, then advances and locates the film. The camera requires no expensive control components or switching mechanisms to synchronize the operation of the camera or to initialize a cartridge when it is loaded into the camera.
