Abstract

An L-shaped rear cover is removably attached to a main body so as to close the rear and bottom sides of the main body. The rear cover is formed with at least one engaging hole or engaging claw engaging with the main body. Near the engaging member, there is a groove for providing a thin wall portion in the rear cover. When detaching the rear cover from the main body for film reloading, the rear cover is deformed or broken along the groove. After the main body is loaded with a new film, a new rear cover is attached to the main body thereby to produce a new film package with a reused main body. In order to reuse the rear cover, the rear cover has an L-shaped engaging claw engaging with an engaging hole in the main body, the L-shaped engaging claw being deformable within that engaging hole.
