The R type and R/W type are set.

The ready sensor is moved to the insertion side to detect the turn round

perforation surely.

The monitoring interval of the perforation of 135/240 is shortened not to damage

the film when a film jam occurs.

The shutter for the panorama film is added to avoid the strong light from the

unexposed part of 135P.

The DX sensor of 240 is moved to the insertion side to be able to detect the FID

of the film rear end side.

The rewind sensor is added to the upper part of the rewind unit to detect a film

jam when a film jam occurs in the rewind unit.

As for the 240, the detection plate of the VEI sensor is changed to detect

immediately if the rotation of the spool stops.

Explanation

• To distinguish the R type from R/W type, open the AFC cover and see whether the read head is

attached or not.

Refer to the Service Manual [62150].

• Also, although this was not available initially, it has been possible to distinguish between the

type R and the type R/W with the red round stickers on the upper part of the Magnetic Head Unit.
