But, as shown in Figure 2-11, the Film Shade has moved to the left, into its blocking position. A lug on one
edge of the Film Shade has slid under the finger on the Power Actuator, pivoting the Actuator upward. The
molded tab or shoulder on the Actuator is now snug up against VER, in contact with B+.
Even if the camera were now folded, pivoting the Erect Sensor down away from VER, VER is held up in
contact with B+ by the tab on the Power Actuator. Thus power is maintained until the processing cycle is
completed. When the Film Shade retracts and its lug moves to the right (position shown in Figure 2-10), it
allows the spring-loaded Power Actuator to pivot downward again. VER drops away from B+ and closes to
GND.
