ACTIVITY NO. 7
FILM

Objective:
The student will be able to learn the different types of films according to sensitivity and the
procedures in loading and unloading of film.

Procedure:
I. TYPE OF FILM. Complete the table by writing the uses of different types of films listed below.

TYPES OF FILMS USES

Fast films Because it is more sensitive to light, it can be


exposed for a brief period of time to create a
photograph. It's great for low-light situations or
fast-moving subjects, although it can be grainy. In
low-light situations, it will produce a brighter image
than the 100 film speed, but on a bright sunny day
outside, it will appear overexposed.
Medium-speed films
For taking a combination of interior and
outdoor photographs on the same film, is
best utilized to photograph cloudy
outdoor images, indoor portraiture with
natural lighting, and when photographing
a combination of indoor and outdoor
images.
Slow Films
It requires a longer exposure to light to
make an image than other film speeds
because it is less sensitive to light. Slow
film has the advantage of producing a
considerably sharper image, thus you
should always shoot at the slowest
feasible speed.
II. LOADING AND UNLOADING OF FILM. Watch the video procedure of loading and unloading of
the film on the link provided below. If you have an SLR camera, you may follow the steps indicated
here:
LOADING
• Open the back of your 35mm single-lens reflex (SLR) camera by lifting the top of the film
rewind knob.
• Insert the film canister into the left side of the camera back or the film storage. Once inserted,
push the film rewind dial down to lock the film canister into place.
• Pull a small amount of film from the canister, across the camera back, and insert the film
tongue into a slot on the film take-up spool reel.
• When the film is in place of the take-up spool reel, advance the film using the film advance
lever. If the film has started to wind around the take-up spool reel, close the back of your
camera.
• With the camera back closed, release the shutter and continue advancing the film with the
film advance lever until the indicator reads frame 1
UNLOADING
• Locate a small button on the bottom of the camera. This button releases the film take-up
spool and allows you to rewind the film.
• If you do not push this button and begin rewinding the film you will feel a lot of tension, and
if you push too hard you may break the camera or rip your film - make sure that the button
is always pushed.
• Lift the small lever of the film rewind knob on the single-lens reflex (SLR) camera.
• Turn the lever in a clockwise motion. You will feel some tension as the film rewinds.
• Continue turning the lever until you feel a dramatic change in tension, or you may hear a
small clicking noise.
• Open the back of the 35mm film camera by pulling the film rewind knob using the film
rewind crank up. The film can now be removed and developed.
