Abstract
A camera is disclosed which includes a loading chamber for receiving a film cartridge. A groove in the film cartridge is engaged by a retention member during movement of the film cartridge from the loading chamber. The retention member allows the film cartridge to move partially out of the loading chamber but prevents the film cartridge from completely moving out of the loading chamber. The retention member is capable of being disabled to allow the film cartridge to be completely moved out of the loading chamber.
