Taking off lense. will it damage film?


I have an Olympus OM20 and I have two lenses. A 210mm zoom and a 35mm that came with it. There is already a active film inside the camera and I am wondering if I take off the lense and replace it with the zoom would light get to the film and mess it up?


P.S I am doing photography at college so im a beginner and just bought this camera. Thanks

  Changing lenes while there is film in the camera is not a problem. Enjoy the hobby!
