Abstract
An image frame selecting apparatus for a photographic printer which is adapted to designate an image frame to be printed among image frames of a short photographic film. The apparatus includes operating devices the number of which is identical with that of the image frames of the short photographic film photographed and which are arranged in correspondence with the image frames of the short photographic film, the operating devices being adapted to select an image frame to be printed; an image frame designating device for designating the image frame corresponding to an operating portion of an associated one of the operating devices; a conveying device for conveying the short photographic film; and a controlling device for controlling the conveying device in such a manner that the image frame designated by the image frame designating device is positioned to a printing position. This arrangement allows the operator to select an image frame to be printed while collating the position of the selected image frame by means of the operating portion, thereby improving the operating efficiency in selection.
