<p>Okay I thought I had pressed the button but obviously not. I'm not sure about going to the developers, I might go. I guess I'm going to have to get it out somehow. Hopefully the next one is okay, I can't seem to do anything right with this camera, I know it's stupid to expect me to know how to work it straight away but still. Thanks for all the help - I will definitely do it like you say next time. x</p>

<p>I lifted up that and the back popped open. But I can't get the film out. I managed to get the film case/canister whatever you call it out. Are they meant to be separate? </p>

<p>I am completely new to this camera and film cameras in general and i'm stuck. I have just finished my roll of film and rewound it just like the instructions said. I opened up the back and the film is on the right hand side. How do I get it out? I can't get it with my fingers or anything. I know to everyone else this may sound like a stupid question but please help!<br>

Okay I've just asked my mum and she said that i've done something wrong. I think I rewound it too much because now the film is completely by itself on the right hand side and the 'case' is on the left by itself. I tried to put the film back into the case but it keeps ripping. Should I just write off this film? </p>

<p>Well, after all that turns out there wasn't any film in there anyway :S But I still learnt some of the controls of the camera. I have put a new roll of film in and can't wait to see how they turn out :) x</p>

<p>Thanks so much to all the solutions. I managed to open it in the end :) x</p>

<p>It's quite hard to lift it higher, i'm scared i'll break it. It's already above the rest of that area - do I lift it more? But what about the numbers - I thought they meant there was film in it - am I wrong? Yeah i'm turning in clockwise. So how do I open the back then? </p>

<p>I know but it was just too pretty. How do I open it - just undo the screws? </p>

<p>I just bought a Pentax ME Super that I think already has film in it. It just reached the number 36 and the rapid wind lever won't move anymore. I followed these instructions from the manual on a website:<br /> I lifted up the rewind crank, pressed the film rewind button and then turned the rewind crank as indicated. Then it says the film rewind indicator should flicker and it's not. It says 'rewind until the tension on the crank lessons' but there wasn't any tension to begin with. Please help - have I broken this camera already? Thanks.

<p>I am a relative beginner hoping to buy my first film camera. I don't want to go digital. I am unsure which one to get, although I am a beginner I doubt I will be buying another camera for a while so this one has got to last while I become better. Which one would you suggest? And just because which one is better for a beginner? </p>
