Minolta Autocord only shoots 10 pictures by roll

[freax]

Hello,

I have shot a few rolls of film but everytime I use my autocord, it only takes 10 pictures ! It spoils 2 frames in every 120 film.
Every time I use a new film, I take care to align the film marks with the red dot from the camera, and did use different film manufacturers.

Anything I'm doing wrong or something I can check/correct ?

Thanks in advance.

I once had a similar problem with an Autocord. If my memory serves me it had something to do with a slightly worn out shutter trigger mechanism. Nothing you can do about it I'm afraid (unless you are really good with TLR cameras). I had a local camera repair shop to work it out for me.

Thanks for our opinion. I noticed now I can do 11 frames if I don't push the film until mark appears.
I will show the camera to a professional.
