Hi. I have just purchased a Canon EOS 650,which I hope to start using.I have two lens's that will fit it. I know how to change the lens,But can I swap the lens over while I have a film in the camera!!!!..May seem a daft but I just cannot find the ans.I have a Canon DSLR so I know it is not a problem with that.Just do not want to take the lens of to change them over and ruin the film.
thanks for any help you can give me.

The focal plane shutter is closed - and the mirror is down - so there's no difference to the film whether or not a lens is mounted. It is safe to change lenses with film in the SLR.

Yep, not a problem changing lenses on the eos 650, unless of course you have the camera set on BULB and keep the shutter button depressed whilst you change them!!
