Abstract
A camera for edge-perforated film with a film feed device (9) and a rotatably mounted film perforation wheel (sprocket wheel) (101) that engages with teeth (102) in the edge perforations of the film and executes a rotational movement during feeding of the film is designed so that one side of the sprocket wheel (101) rests against a bearing surface (17) of a housing part (2) and the other side of the sprocket wheel has a coaxial bearing collar (103) that is rotatably arranged in a bearing opening of a housing part. Preferably the sprocket wheel (101) together with the bearing collar (103) is formed as a single integral unit and engages via an outer edge region in a circumferential interspacing between housing parts, wherein this interspacing may be formed between the bearing surface (17) and a plate (115, 118) arranged above the latter, which can form a circular bearing opening in which the bearing collar (103) of the sprocket wheel (101) is radially mounted.
