Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method of
transferring images from an image content of a first format to a photosensitive
film of a second format. The image content of the first format can include
photosensitive material such as an exposed roll of 35mm film, a photographic
print, a floppy disk , a compact disc, etc. With the system and method of the
present invention, it is possible for a customer to take, for example, an existing
negative and have it transferred onto an Advanced Photo System film format.
Therefore, in the system and method of the present invention, original exposed
film such as 35mm, 110 film, etc., can be scanned to produce a digital record of
the images. The record of the images can be sent to a digital film writer where a
preferred format, for example, Advanced Photo System film, can be obtained.
The Advanced Photo System film can then be placed in a thrust-type film
cartridge. This permits the conversion of old film types into a preferred film
format that can be easily used to interface with film viewing devices. This also
permits the conversion of non-permanent storage of images to a permanent media
with high storage capabilities such as Advanced Photo System film.

Abstract: Of two body parts constituting a cellular telephone, a back
body part has a body main part and an antenna attachment portion.
An antenna for transmitting and receiving radio waves to and from
a satellite has a cylindrical excitation antenna and a cylindrical
helical antenna. The helical antenna is attached in such a manner
that it can be pulled out to establish a state that it does not
contact the inner circumferential surface of the excitation
antenna. The excitation antenna is integrally molded with the
back body part such that of the outer circumferential surface of
the excitation antenna an antenna element surface that is formed
with antenna elements comes into close contact with the inner
circumferential surface of the antenna attachment portion. This
structure dispenses with, for example, work of attaching an
attaching member to the body, thus simplifying the manufacturing
process.
