Thank you!!!! I wanted to use my camera to commemorate a special event. Before leaving, the roll was empty so I took out the old and I put a new roll of film in my Mini. Took the first shot and it JAMMED!!! I thought it was broken forever 😢 Thankfully I saw this video. I tried step 1, and nothing happened. I even went through six sets of batteries to make sure. So I tried step 2, but I don’t have that bag. I decided my bathroom is just as dark at 2am with all the lights off. So I went in the darkest area and pried that thing open. That first plastic layer, the one where it goes from “S” to “10” to open the film, was jammed inside, it was so difficult to take out the pack. But I did it, and it works fine now! Thank you for your help 💐👏🙌🫶

@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
If the film pack is stuck like that, you probably had a double feed- the protective cover and another sheet of film may have gotten stuck in between the rollers. It might take a bit more force to pull the film pack away from the camera since there are 2 pieces lodged in. You can try removing the pack carefully; once pulled out you'll see which pieces were stuck on the rollers, you will have to pull those sheets out manually too.

Hi, I replaced batteries in off mode after the film jammed while it was being ejected (towards the end) the film then jammed again, stupidly I then pulled the film by force. I then replaced the batteries while the camera was on and the film ejected all the way, after that it got stuck again. Sometimes the film ejects fully, other times it gets stuck in the same position as before (almost out). Any advice please? When it gets stuck it seems like the rollers have just stopped early. I have cleaned the rollers and the battery contacts. The camera is not showing the low battery flashing lights so I don’t think it is a battery problem. Could the alignment be incorrect due to pulling out film? Any fixes if so or other recommendations? Thank you
@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
The rollers are held in place by thick springs-they can get mis-aligned after being dropped and may be able to get damaged if too much force is used. If the camera is unloaded, I would try to feed the camera used films to try to see if that would reset or re-align the whole system.

@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
The blinking lights are an indication that there's a general error on the camera. Usually it's just the batteries or your battery contacts are corroded or dirty. In some cases, this can mean that your camera's shutter or some other electronic part has failed and needs to be replaced. If you've replaced the batteries and cleaned the battery contacts BUT you're still getting blinking lights, it's best to have your camera checked at a repair or service center.

Hi! So a film got stuck on my instax mini 9 due to low batteries. I made the mistake of pulling it instead of changing the batteries first. It works now that I’ve replaced it with the right batteries but I think I kind of messed up the rollers since some parts of the developed film look like it’s pressed too much since it appears to have some white lines. Can this be fixed with just cleaning the rollers or is it permanent?
@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
The rollers are held in place with springs and plastic clips. As long as those were not broken or misaligned,, there shouldn't be any permanent damage. You can clean the rollers by swabbing them with a Qtip/cotton bud with a little alcohol, but do it very, very carefully because the cotton can get stuck between rollers. Hopefully the lines will go away after a few more shots- some debris does come off by sticking to the film getting ejected, cleaning the rollers in the process.

Your camera probably had a double feed-the protective sheet and a piece of film got stuck in the rollers at the same time. When I encountered this with my camera, I had to remove the film pack in total darkness, The film was stuck pretty good and I had to use a bit of force to pull out the pack.

Hi i have a question... We use instax mini 9 and the new cartridge. The protection layer got stuck 25% so that we can't remove the cartridge or eject after battery replacement. How. Do you remove stuck plastic protector that comes out as first photo.
@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
The best way is to let the camera do it but if it can't and the protector is still stuck, try pulling the protector GENTLY.

My Instax Mini 9 po had the same issue pero it's the very first film the black one na na stuck and I'm using an Energizer battery since drained na OG batteries ko. What's the best battery to use po ba and how to fix my prob po?
@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
Energizer is a good brand. Any of the well known battery brands like Energizer, Panasonic, Fujitsu, Duracell should be ok. That has never happened to me but if I were in your situation, I would try to remove the black cover and put back the film pack (all in the changing bag, of course).

If you haven't removed the film's black cover yet, try removing the entire film pack and have the camera take a picture while unloaded. Check if it will complete the cycle. Check the metal claw that pulls out the film is undamaged.

Can I use energizer lithium batteries? I use new Alkaline Energizer and after 8 shots my camera jammed
@GoneWithFilm2 жыл бұрын
Lithiums should be better but more expensive. You might also want to check your camera's battery contacts, that might be the reason. They will not give the right voltage if they're dirty.

My film was stuck, I removed the film. The lights started blinking. I changed the batteries. None of the setting lights are turned on now but the eye hole light is red now😭😭😭😭😭
@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
The viewfinder light blinks when the camera is first turned on to indicate that the flash is charging. It should turn off once charged and ready to shoot. If it's still on after a few seconds, it's an indication of low power. If you're low on power but the batteries are new, try cleaning the battery contacts. Wipe first with a clean cloth, then swab with a cotton bud with 70% alchohol or denatured alchohol, then wipe dry again. If there's corrosion in the battery compartment, you will need to clean that out too.

Hi i have the same problem. All the lights are blinking after changing the film for instax 8. The protective layer is stuck.when we tried to remove the film cartridge it is hard to get it out. Can you recommend what to do? Thanks..
@GoneWithFilm3 жыл бұрын
This usually happens when the camera has a double feed- both the cover and 1 film are stuck in between the rollers. It will feel difficult to remove because of the way it's stuck and will need some force to pull out- you will need to pull the film pack hard towards the back of the camera. This needs to be done carefully since you might damage the camera if done incorrectly. If you're not confident in being able to remove it without damaging the camera, I suggest you bring the camera to a repair or service center.

Hi po, wanted to ask my instax mini liplay wont eject the black film, not sure what happened. Usually when I place the film inside it would automatically eject the black film or cover. 😢
@GoneWithFilm2 жыл бұрын
Sorry I don't have experience with the Instax printers. I'd suggest you check the battery is full. If the printer hasn't ejected the black film yet (not even a piece is out), try opening the back IN COMPLETE DARKNESS to re-seat the film pack.

Hi po! I would like to ask some help po kasi my film cover won’t eject po and I think it’s still inside. I already tried replacing the batteries with new alkaline ones (I bought the energizer max AA alkaline, 1,5V). I tried it while opening the lens and already cleaned the battery polars po. I also tried to remove the film in dark light but it was hard to remove po and the lights are still blinking. Also the lights in the viewfinder are not blinking. (The blinking in the lens po is not uniform. Nauuna po yung May house po then followed na sa tatlong settings pero yung tatlong settings po magkasabay po silang mag light) what should I do po to fix my camera? Also what brand of batteries will be best to use po kasi energizer lang available sa aming province. Thank you po

That's my question too, the film pack itself is stuck I can't pick it up to take it out to try to get to the gym how would I remove that without breaking the camera or the film pack?

@GoneWithFilm2 жыл бұрын
Probably a double jam- two films got stuck together. It can be removed but it will take a lot more force. The two pieces of film are stuck in the rollers so you have to pull the pack from the bottom. If you're not confident that you can do it without breaking the camera, it's best to bring it to a camera repair center.
