Hi everyone,
Recently I just got the test roll of my Eclair ACL, I found it very frustrating when I pulled the magazine out and engaged it again, the image became double-exposure-like or flared, the footage before I pulled the magazine out looks perfectly fine.
So is there any way to check if the loop is still there when the magazine is attached to the camera? Should I keep shooting and not pull out the magazine or change the magazine if the roll is not done?
I emailed Nicki, and she told me there should be 12 perforations and that should push it back in with the same slack of film, I wonder if should I push the top part of the bottom part back.
Also, should I send the camera for maintenance if the camera runs ok? Is there any place recommended for ACL maintenance?
Thank you so much everyone! I really appreciate the knowledge of film cameras and Eclair here!
