Abstract
A photographic film package comprises a camera pre-loaded with a roll film and including a non-opaque body section having an integral front finder lens for viewing a subject to be photographed, and an outer opaque packaging tightly encasing the camera and having a front opening for the front finder lens. The outer packaging is coated with a light-absorbent substance at a location along its inside surface, which is sufficiently absorbent to prevent ambient light transmitted through the front finder lens to the location from being reflected off the inside surface at least to the front finder lens. Consequently, the peripheral edge of the front finder lens will not appear to have undesireable bright spots as in prior art cameras.
