Abstract
The present invention relates to a film magazine having an external cylinder both end surfaces of which are closed by upper and lower covers, and a spool hub rotatably contained in the external cylinder at the axis thereof. The spool hub has a thin winding shaft cylinder having and axial length substantially the same as the axial length of the external cylinder and a projection provided on an upper portion of the inner periphery thereof so as to engage a rewind mechanism of a camera. The winding shaft cylinder has a hollow space longitudinally extending over the interior length thereof. A strobe capacitor as a constituent part of the camera body is disposed in the space so that the space in the camera can be further decreased.
