The rewind crank should spin as you advance the film. To make sure your film is advancing within the camera when the back door is closed, simply locate the rewind crank on your camera and watch it as you turn the advance wheel. If you know you’re shooting the right speed film in the right lighting conditions and your shutter is working fine, your film may not be advancing within the camera. You should see a brief circle of light appear and disappear right before your eyes. If the shutter on your camera doesn’t open, your film can’t get exposed to light, and therefore can’t make an image! Simply open the back of your camera (without film in it, of course), cock the camera’s shutter (if necessary), and look through the lens plane while you click the shutter button. If you know you were shooting an appropriate speed film in the right lighting conditions, check on your shutter. Not loading the film properly in the camera.There can be many reasons why your film didn’t produce any images. ![]() Write down your push/pull on the order form which is a $2 fee and be sure to write on the film canister itself the push/pull. You will also need let us know how much you push or pull your film so when we develop your film so we can change the developing time to compensate. Pulling film works great for black and white especially contrasty scenes with a lot of shadow detail. Pulling will take away contrast giving you better detail in your shadows and will make grain less noticeable. Pushing is good for lowlight situations – it will add contrast and often make the grain more noticeable. Pushing and pulling will change the look of the film. So if the box speed is 400, -1 stop would be 200, -2 stops would be 100, and -3 would be 50. You can also pull your film – it works the same – you’re just cutting the speed in half for each stop you need to pull. So if the box speed is 400, then +1 stop would be 800, +2 stops would be 1600, +3 would be 3200. Pushing ISO doubles every time you increase it 1 stop.
