Framing shaft is rotatable with respect to projector housing and has an o-ring therebetween to serve as a drag brake. Advance shaft is detented with respect to framing shaft by means of an embracing spring. The drag brake of the framing shaft has a greater torque than the detent of the advance shaft with respect to the framing shaft.
