Widelux F7 rattling sounds

[jvan01]

Greetings,

When turning my Widelux over and back I can hear rattling sounds from inside the top plate. Is this normal to hear? Operationally the camera works fine other than some intermittent banding.
Hopefully it's not broken gear teeth.

I just checked my F7 out. It also has a rattling sound as you turn it over.

At this point, I've only had the camera for one week and it's the first time I noticed the noise. So far there are no issues (or banding) with my camera.

Perhaps it is normal.

Side note: When my car rattles, I generally turn the radio up louder. ;-)

hmm, i've checked around other forums and this seems to be a normal sign. Must be metal spacers sliding up and down their spools, from the sounds of it....
