Question by Penguin.: How do you remove film from Canon FT without removing the pictures on the film?
I know it's a stupid question, but it's my question. I believe this Canon FT is from 1970, and obviously it's not mine but my dad's. He tought me how to do just about everything except remove the film.
Right now I'm using FujiFilm #24 to take photographs, but I've taken more than that, 34 to be exact. I'm also wondering if that will make my oldest photos a double exposure?
The camera hasn't stalled when trying to take pictures so I'm wondering when it'll stall because it's only supposed to be able to take 24.

Try rewinding the film. The knob on the top left of the camera has a little crank that folds out. Wind it clockwise. If it spins freely, you didn't load it properly and took no photos. If it stalls, push in the little button on the bottom of the camera and try again.
Or, you wound it too hard, ripped the film out of the cassette, and now must open the camera in total, absolute darkness and pull the film out by hand (don't forget the rewind button), roll it up into an opaque film can, and make sure the lab knows that there's raw film in the can.
Good luck.
