Abstract
A camera uses a film cartridge for automatically guiding out a film when the film cartridge is mounted into a film cartridge chamber. A film cartridge unit has the film cartridge chamber. A rail plate unit is formed independently of the film cartridge unit and is also mechanically connected to the film cartridge unit. The rail plate unit faces the film for guiding the move of the film from the film cartridge chamber. The film cartridge unit has a guide route for securely guiding the film from the film cartridge chamber to the rail plate unit.
