Hi all,
New to the forums and have a question/issue regarding my newly acquired 690lll. After developing my test roll I noticed the first frame was clipped by the leading edge of the film paper, alignment was fine for the rest of the roll. Is this just operator error when loading the film? Film was loaded and rolled to the mark point and wound on correctly, just hope the camera isn't faulty.
Would appreciate any input from peeps
Cheers

I have never lost any frames, but I have come close to it. So, I generally roll the film to about 1/4'' (6mm?) past the arrow. Since I started doing this the first frame is farther away from the end of the film.

Thanks for the reply Ken. I've actually done this when loading my second (test) roll to see how it effects the first frame.
