I like this camera, but it's been a real head scratcher. The first roll was Fuji
Xtra 400, took it to Walgreens to a lady that has done superb work and she
calls to inform entire roll is blank.:confused: Thinking immediately it was the
shutter or a piece of film that got jammed behind the lens I take a look, nope,
and shutter works at all f-stops and shutter speeds. So I load it with AP100
and get 4 shots that came out OK. Film advance looks good, too.

RF seems to work OK and love the large/bright VF and RF patch, compared
to the squinty C3 match-matic.
Any ideas as to why this works sporadically when film is loaded?
