Shoot Film
I have two Rolleicord cameras I recently bought on eBay. Both work perfectly, although I can tell the slower speeds are a little off. One is a III made in the mid-1950's and the other is a Vb made in the 70's. Both cameras have uneven frame spacing. Neither of the cameras have overlapping frames, but sometimes the frames are touching or have more space than usual. My Hasselblad, Rolleiflex or any other MF camera didn't have this issue. I am wondering if it is the hand film advance knob that might be responsible. Sometimes I use long turns of the knob and other times I use several short turns of the knob. Sometimes, when the film is in the camera, I notice that the turn to the next frame is slightly shorter or longer. I have been loading Rolleiflex and other medium format cameras for almost 20 years, so I know it isn't film tightness during loading. The spool is tight when I unload too.
Anyone experience this issue?
