Since a week my Kowa Six is having problems with the film transport.
The first 6 or 7 frames are OK but then the remaining frames are partly double exposed by a quarter (approx.) frame.
Just to check I ran a test with a new roll and after releasing the shutter and before rewinding I made a marking point on the back of the film. (With the back open.)
After removing the film after 12 exposures I checked the distance of the 12 marking points I made, and they are spot on, no difference in frame distance at all!
I shot nummerous rolls of film with it without any problems, but the last three rolls all have the semi-double exposures on the last 5 or 6 frames.
Perhaps there is someone on APUG with similar experiences and hopefully a solution for this problem.
Best regards,
LCEL.
