Film Rewind Troubles Fixed

Post Published:


I recently got B&W film for my old Canon Rebel SLR 35mm film camera I have had for many years.

I loaded a roll, and all was A-OK. I wasn’t sure if there was an off button for the little display area, hit the wrong thing, OH NOOOOOO!

Display still on 24 hrs later …

I had taken one picture thus far, rewound the entire roll by accident.

Leader for the film was cleanly fully inside the film canister

I found this reddit post, and this Youtube video, and successfully rescued my new film roll.

Phew.

Addendum: I just now [4-3-2024 2:39pm EDT] learned that the red item on dial at mark is as OFF as it can be, the display changes to lesser info.
