PULL STRAIGHT, PULL SWIFTLY
Pull it
straight
out of
the camera, swiftly. Begin timing development.
lift it off. Outdoors, don't let the picture assembly
flap in the
breeze. Develop the picture for the full time recommended
in the film instruction
sheet.
After the recommended development time, quickly strip
the white print
off
the brown paper
starting from
the end
nearest to the
yellow
tab. A color print
will
look nearly dry,
but don't touch the
face for a few
minutes. It will harden to
a tough, glossy
finish. When
it is dry,
mount
it on
a color
print mount, which is supplied with
the film.
Don't touch the face of black
and
white prints. You
must
coat
them
to prevent fading and
other damage
(see
page 29
for how to coat
prints).
Strip off the white print.
OPERATION
Fold
up
the negative.
Avoid contact with chemicals left
on the negative
after the
print is
removed.
(Be
sure to read the
caution
paragraph
about this
in your
film instructions.) Fold up the negative
with the moist side in. Please
put it
in
a
wastebasket or
film box. Don't be a litterbug!
If no
yellow
tab pops out when you pull the white tab, stop.
Don't pull another white
tab. Page 26 shows you
what
to
do
in
this situation.
Never pull a white tab when you can see a yellow tab.
If
you do so accidentally, don't pull the yellow tabs
that appear
or
you'll
spread
developer all
over
the rollers. Instead, re¬
move the yellow tabs as shown
on
page
26.
