Ejecting a disk.It was very easy learning how to insert the floppy disk into the camera. Ejecting it was a little trickier but Clow students are fast learners. Students get their camera, sign it out, pick up their floppy disk and are ready to go.

Sometimes when the camera has been used a lot, a Webographer might have to change the battery. Each student knows how to charge the old battery so that the next person can be ready to go too. Signing out a camera.
