Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a method for advancing photographic film is provided for use by a photographic system which uses film cartridges, such as cameras, film development equipment or equipment which provides for the viewing and/or printing of processed film contained within a film cartridge. The method can be used by a dual lens camera to intersperse on photographic film mono and dual exposures and thereby minimize the possibility of double exposures and/or film waste. The method according to the present invention is for use by the camera to advance the film after each exposure action to align unexposed frames of film with each lens.
