How do I load 110 film into my camera?
Loading 110 film into your camera is very easy compared to other film formats such as 35 mm and 120, which can take time to get used to. With 110 cameras you don’t need to pull the negative out at all! Simply open the back of the camera and pop the cartridge inside. Then close it and wind the film until you reach the first frame.
Lomography’s Diana Baby 110 camera can be loaded with film by sliding off the back cover of the camera, placing the film stock horizontally, and locking it in place by putting the cover back on. Next, turn the film advancing wheel until it stops, which means you’re ready to get shoot your 110 roll.
