I was recently given a Canon Power Winder A2 from a relative that they used a LONG time ago. There's no instructions and I know nothing about cameras. I'm so lame, I can't even figure out where the film goes. Can someone help?

Hello Blackholes88
Please try the site below, mir, is a mine of info.

I have the A winder, very easy to use. I like to put it on before putting film in camera. When taking photos with winder check that rewind crank is turning, this will say film is correctly loaded.
Regards Karl

Laura,

A silly observation, but you make no mention of the camera you are using. You do have an A Series camera? Obviously the film is loaded into the back of the camera, the A2 Winder attaches onto the camera bottom and saves you straining the right thumb!
