Hi,
Just 2 questions to bessa users,
1. advance crank - sometimes i encounter 2 frames overlapping (by approx 1/3) on the film, i remember that it happened to me few times to not advance crank fully (and corrected immediately) - could this be the cause of overlapping frames ?
2. Trigger winder, have this one, and it seems that when using normal crank, spacing between frames is bigger and using trigger winder maybe half the size original one - is this normal ?
Thanks.

With the lever wind or the add-on trigger wind don't hurry things.
This isn't a Nikon motor drive replacement!

Interestingly, I had the problem you describe in #1 (frame overlap) using my trigger winder. I've never had issues with the thumb winder on my Bessa R, R3A, R3M and R4M, but I have found that the trigger winder slips enough for me not to want to use it for anything other than a grip. I tried two different winders and had the same problem with each. It's simply not as good a design as something like the Abrahamsson Rapidwinder (which of course doesn't work on a Voigtlander).

I've had overlap on the 3 Voigtlander cameras I've owned. R,R2, and R3. It happens mostly when I'm in a hurry and get a bit sloppy while winding with either the winder or the thumb winder.

Yeah i believe your description is the closest to what i'm encountering.
At least this proves this is not only affecting me but other ppl too.
Thanks
